Species: Calendulauda africanoides
The fawn-coloured lark (Calendulauda africanoides) or fawn-coloured bush-lark is a species of lark in the family Alaudidae. It is found in south-central Africa.
Taxonomy and systematics
Formerly, the fawn-coloured lark was classified as belonging to the genus Mirafra until moved to Calendulauda in 2009.[2] Not all authorities recognize this re-classification.[3]
Subspecies
Six subspecies are recognized:[4]
C. a. trapnelli - (White, CMN, 1943): Found in south-eastern Angola and south-western Zambia
Damaraland fawn-coloured lark or Naivasha fawn-coloured lark (C. a. harei) - (Roberts, 1917): Found from central Namibia to south-western Botswana and north-western South Africa.
C. a. makarikari - (Roberts, 1932): Found from south-western Angola and northern Namibia to western Zambia and northern and central Botswana
C. a. sarwensis - (Roberts, 1932): Found in western Botswana, eastern Namibia and north-central South Africa
C. a. vincenti - (Roberts, 1938): Found in central Zimbabwe and southern Mozambique
C. a. africanoides - (Smith, 1836): Found in southern Namibia, southern and eastern Botswana, south-western Zimbabwe and northern South Africa
Distribution and habitat
The range of Mirafra africanoides is broadly spread, with an estimated global extent of occurrence of 2,400,000 km2.[1] It can be found in the countries of Angola, Botswana, Ethiopia, Kenya, Mozambique, Namibia, Somalia, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.
