The collared scops owl is a small nocturnal bird about 23 centimeters long. It has large eyes, ear tufts, and a dark collar on the neck that distinguishes it from other scops owls.
The collared scops owl differs from other scops owls by its distinct dark collar and voice. It is important for nature because it eats many harmful insects and rodents, helping to maintain balance in the forests of Asia.
