East Brazilian pygmy owl East Brazilian pygmy owl The East Brazilian pygmy owl ("Glaucidium minutissimum"), also known as least pygmy-owl or Sick's pygmy-owl, is a small owl in the typical owl family. It has been argued that the here used scientific name actually belongs to the Pernambuco pygmy owl, in which case the East Brazilian pygmy owl should be referred to "G. sicki" (König & Weick, 2005). This has not gained widespread recognition. Formerly, this species included the Colima pygmy owl, Tamaulipas pygmy owl, Central American pygmy owl, subtropical pygmy owl, and Baja pygmy owl as subspecies. This species has a very large range.
