I haven’t seen the reference that Phil based his comment on, so would be
really interested to know more about the impending split. In WA, the
scrubwren extends eastwards along the coast, especially in the dune
scrub/mallee woodland ecotone. It is a very common species in habitat
around the Eyre Bird Observatory, for instance. The mallee woodland/dune
scrub ecotone ends pretty much at the WA/SA border, where I’m guessing is
the eastern extent of the Spotted Scrubwren.
