The
Buffy Fish Owl (
Bubo ketupu), also known as the Malay Fish Owl, is a species of
owl in the
Strigidae family. It was previously placed in
Ketupa with the other fish owls, but that group is tentatively included with the
eagle-owls in
Bubo, until the affiliations of the fish owls and fishing owls can be resolved more precisely. It is found in
Brunei,
Cambodia,
Cocos (Keeling) Islands,
India,
Indonesia,
Laos,
Malaysia,
Myanmar,
Singapore,
Thailand, and
Vietnam. Its natural
habitat is subtropical or tropical moist
montane forests.
