The eastern clapper lark (Corypha fasciolata) is a small passerine bird which breeds in southern Africa.

It is one of several species that were moved to the resurrected genus Corypha based on the results of a large molecular genetic study by the Swedish ornithologist Per Alström and collaborators that was published in 2023.

[5] Five subspecies are recognised:[2] This lark is a 15-cm-long bird, with a brown crown, rich rufous underparts, and a strong bill.

The eastern clapper lark is a skulking species, difficult to find when not displaying.

It is not gregarious, and individuals tend to be seen in dry habitats feeding on the ground on seeds and insects.
