Subalpine Warbler 
Sylvia cantillans 
Three slightly differentiated subspecies: 
in western Europe to Italy (cantillans) 
North Africa (inomata) Balkans to 
Turkey (albistriata). Only the last 
occurs in eastern Mediterranean and 
migrates through Egypt. 
Habitat: Similar low maquis scrub as 
that of Sardinian Warbler but often in 
less arid and thicker undergrowth in open 
woodland.
