Subspecies
No subspecies.
Mirafra assamica (Sibley and Monroe 1990, 1993) has been split into Bengal Bushlark (Mirafra assamica ), Jerdon's Bushlark (Mirafra affinis ), Burmese Bushlark (Mirafra microptera ) and Indochinese Bushlark (Mirafra erythrocephala ) following Alström (1998).
Specific name frequently given as marionae , but that is predated by present name. Relationship with African congeners unknown. Recently split from Bengal Bushlark (Mirafra assamica ) on basis mainly of pronounced differences in vocalizations, song flight, other behaviour, habitat choice and cytochrome b gene sequences (14·8%); equally large genetic (respectively, 13·7% and 11·7%) and vocal differences from Jerdon's Bushlark (Mirafra affinis ) and Burmese Bushlark (Mirafra microptera ), both of which were also previously considered conspecific with Bengal Bushlark (Mirafra assamica ). Birds from north-western Thailand sometimes separated as subspecies subsessor .
