Résumé :	The population of the Aquatic Warbler in Hungary has been increasing steadily since the first breeding record in 1971. A population increase from 19 singing male in 1971 to 586 singing male in 1997 was observed. The total population is estimated to comprise about 600 singing male, which concentrate on the Hortobagy Puszta, the only known breeding area in Hungary. Some possible breeding sites in eastern Hungary have not yet surveyed. The breeding range recently expanded eastwards in the southern part of the Hortobagy National Park. The species prefers larger patches of lowland marsh vegetation, sometimes with no water at all.
