region.

Geography

The Petite Kabylie is located in the

Mediterranean
. The Petite Kabylie is separated from the
Soummam
Valley.

The Petite Kabylie spreads over several administrative divisions of Algeria:

Bouira Province
bordering the provinces of Béjaïa and Bordj Bou Arreridj.

An ampler definition could include the

Arabophone regions that by tradition are culturally Berber of Jijel Province, and only the western parts of Mila Province and the western parts of Skikda Province up to Collo and Tamalous.[2]

Ecology

Some of Petite Kabylie is forested with

endangered Barbary macaque, Macaca sylvanus, a primate species which prehistorically held a much wider range.[3]
