English: White-winged Lark  
Russian: Белокрылый жаворонок
Mongolian: Цагаалиг болжмор
German: Weissflugellerche
French:  Alouette leocoptere
Japanese:  ハジロコウテンシ (Hajiro-kotenshi)

Body length: 17-19 cm. Breeds on natural steppe, dry heaths and to some degree on cultivations. Partly migratory.

Identification: Characteristic wing pattern of white, black and brown (sexes largely alike). Wide white trailing edge of wing makes wings look peculiarly narrow against a light sky. Most similar to Mongolian Lark (M.mongolica; not treated), but that is larger, has heavier bill, and has a Calandra-like black patch on the breast side.

• Adult ♂: Crown unstreaked red-brown. Breast usually sparsely streaked only.
• Adult ♀: Crown streaked, grey-brown with only tinge of rufous. Breast generally prominently streaked.
