1/ Indochinese bush lark (Sơn ca Đông Dương, Plocealauda erythrocephala) or Indochinese lark
The prefix erythr- or erythro- means red or reddish. It is derived from the Greek word eruthros meaning red.

Alaudidae is from Alauda for lark in Latin.
The genus name Plocealauda is a portmanteau of the genera Ploceus and Alauda:
 - The word Ploceus comes from the New Latin word plokeus, which is derived from the Ancient Greek word plekein (πλεκειν), meaning "to plait," "to weave," or "to braid". The Greek word plokeus (πλοκευς) itself means "weaver" or "plaiter". 
 - The term Alauda is Latin for "lark" or "skylark". It comes from Gaulish, a Celtic language, and is the genus name for skylarks.
