Despite sightings 13 years ago, a miniature Brazilian owl has only just been recognized as a distinct species. The 15-centimeter, 57-gram Pernambuco pygmy owl, a critically endangered species, is described this month in the Brazilian Journal of Ornithology by Conservation International (CI) ornithologist José Maria Cardoso da Silva and colleagues. The tiny Glaucidium mooreorum is named after Intel founder Gordon Moore, who donated $261 million to CIin 2001.
