The Benguela long-billed lark (Certhilauda benguelensis), also known as the Benguela larkorBenguela longbill is a species of lark in the family Alaudidae. It is found in south-western Africa. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical dry lowland grassland.

Taxonomy and systematics[edit]

The Benguela long-billed lark was originally placed in the genus Alaemon.[1] Confusingly, the terms Damara longbill and Damaraland long-billed lark are used for both the Karoo long-billed lark and a subspecies of the Benguela long-billed lark.[2][3] Clements lumps this bird with the Karoo long-billed lark.

Subspecies[edit]

Two subspecies are recognized:[4]

C. b. subsp. kaokoensis in northwestern Namibia
