The "low whistle" (as opposed to a pennywhistle).

A youtube comment:
[The] most common low whistle is the "Low D", pitched one octave below the traditional D whistle. A whistle is  classed as a low whistle if its lowest note is the G above middle C or lower. Whistles higher than this are termed "soprano" or "high" whistles when a distinction is necessary. Low whistles operate on the same principles, and are fingered in the same way as traditional pennywhistles, and also belong to the same woodwind instrument family of end-blown fipple flutes.
