| Abstract: | The Striped Crake Porzana marginalis is native to Ethiopian Africa but its actual range is poorly known. It has been recorded from sub-Saharan savannahs to South Africa, accidental to Algeria and Libya (Cramp & Simmons 1979). There is also one unconfirmed record from Morocco (Thevenot et al. 2003). In Europe it has been recorded only once, an adult female at Livorno, Italy on 4 January 1997 (Brichetti & Fracasso 2004). |
