    New split for North Africa : Maghreb Wood Owl

    I assume this is Strix (aluco) mauritanica (Witherby 1905), the Maghreb or Barbary Owl. I think Maghreb Wood Owl invites confusion or comparison with some of the Asiatic species (e.g. S. leptogrammica, S. seloputo), and Maghreb Tawny Owl means we would have to rename our Tawny Owl.
