Taxonomy

The russet lark was formerly placed in the genus Mirafra. It is one of several species that were moved to the resurrected genus Corypha based on the results of a large molecular genetic study by the Swedish ornithologist Per Alström and collaborators that was published in 2023.[2][3] The species is monotypic: no subspecies are recognised.[2]
