Aquila hastata (Indian Spotted Eagle)

Synonyms: Clanga hastata (homotypic)

Wikipedia Abstract

The Indian spotted eagle (Clanga hastata) is a large South Asian bird of prey. Like all typical eagles, it belongs to the family Accipitridae. The typical eagles are often united with the buteos, sea eagles and other more heavyset Accipitridae, but more recently it appears as if they are less distinct from the more slender accipitrine hawks.
