Maghreb lark : ウィキペディア英語版 | Maghreb lark
The Maghreb lark (''Galerida macrorhyncha'') is a species of bird in the lark family Alaudidae native to North Africa. Previously considered to comprise subspecies of the crested lark, it was found to have diverged genetically from the latter species 1.9 million years ago and has been given species rank. Subspecies ''macrorhyncha'' and ''randonii'' are recognised. Alban Guillaumet and colleagues noted the distinctiveness of populations from the Maghreb - birds in the dryer parts of Morocco and Tunisia had longer bills while those in more coastal northern parts had shorter bills typical of the European subspecies. The authors sampled the mitochondrial DNA and found they were distinct genetically. The species name is derived from the Ancient Greek words ''makros'' "long" and ''rhynchos'' "bill". ==References==
