Biology:Alasio
From HandWiki
Alasio is an extinct genus of typical owls known from material dated to the Middle Miocene of Vieux-Collonges, France.[1] The holotype, a coracoid, was originally assigned to genus Strix under the protonym Strix collongensis.[2] The modified head of the coracoid, among several anatomical characteristics, led Mlíkovský to designate Alasio as a new genus in tribe Asionini.[3] The generic name derives from Latin alacer ("pugnacious") and asio ("owl").[3]
