• The genus name is a diminutive of Ancient Greek "kalandros", the calandra lark.
• These melodious sounds (to human ears), combined with a willingness to expand into anthropogenic habitats — as long as these are not too intensively managed — have ensured larks a prominent place in literature and music, especially the Eurasian skylark in northern Europe and the crested lark and calandra lark in southern Europe.
• The members of "Melanocorypha" occur mainly in temperate Asia from Turkey through central Asia to China, but the calandra lark also has an extensive European distribution around the Mediterranean.
• "Ricinus vaderi" is a species of chewing lice which parasitises the calandra lark ("Melanocorypha calandra") in Azerbaijan.
• The song is considered so musical to human ears that the calandra lark was formerly a popular cagebird in its range.
