The Torotoroka Scops Owl (Otus madagascariensis) is a species of owl in the Strigidae family. It is found throughout most of western Madagascar, but the exact distribution limits between it and the Rainforest Scops Owl (O. rutilus), with which it was long considered conspecific, require further study.
Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical dry forests.
