01Narrative

Père David's owl (Strix davidi) is an owl found in the mountains of central China (Qinghai and Sichuan). There is debate over whether it is a separate species or an isolated subspecies of Ural owl. The Clements Checklist of Birds of the World (2015 version) considers it separate, but BirdLife International and IUCN treat it as a subspecies.

05DNA & barcoding1 specimens

A DNA barcode is a short, standardised stretch of genes that works like a fingerprint — enough to tell one species from another. Below is the molecular trace Strix davidi has left across the world's sequence archives.
