The Iberian wolf is a subspecies of grey wolf that inhabits the forest and plains of northern Portugal and northwestern Spain.

As of 2005, it was recognized as a synonym of ''C. l. lupus'' by Mammal Species of the World. Although skull morphometrics, mtDNA, and microsatellite of Iberian wolves differ from other European wolves.
