The Oriental skylark is an open-country lark of the Sino-Indian region and parts of Central Asia. It occupies grassland, where its brown, earth-toned appearance suits a life spent largely on the ground. Its documented diet combines seeds with insects. Alternative English names include eastern skylark, Indian skylark, lesser skylark and small skylark, but Oriental skylark is the name used by the opened species account.
