If it isn't any trouble, would you be able to specify what subspecies?

Hi,
The Jordanian Greeks are Testudo graeca ssp (as they don't have a valid subspecies name)
The second greek is Testudo graeca buxtoni and not T.g.ibera
The third greek might be a Golden greek and that would be Testudo graeca terrestris
The last 2 are Testudo graeca ibera from Turkey.
