Editing Northern crested newt (section)

==Range==

The northern crested newt is the most widespread and northerly crested newt species. The northern edge of its range runs from [[Great Britain]] through southern [[Fennoscandia]] to the [[Republic of Karelia]] in [[Russia]]; the southern margin runs through central France, southwest [[Romania]], [[Moldavia]] and [[Ukraine]], heading from there into central Russia and through the [[Ural Mountains]]. The eastern extent of the great crested newt's range reaches into [[Western Siberia]], running from the [[Perm Krai]] to the [[Kurgan Oblast]].{{r|Kuzmin1999}}

In western France, the species co-occurs and sometimes hybridises (see section ''Evolution'' below) with the marbled newt (''Triturus marmoratus'').{{r|ArntzenJehle2009}} In southeast Europe, its range borders that of the [[Italian crested newt]] (''T. carnifex''), the Danube crested newt (''T. dobrogicus''),  the [[Macedonian crested newt]] (''T. macedonicus'') and the [[Balkan crested newt]] (''T. ivanbureschi'').{{r|ArntzenWielstra2014}}
