Richard's Pipit (Anthus richardi), African Pipit (Anthus cinnamomeus), Cameroon Pipit (Anthus camaroonensis) and Kenya populations of Jackson's Pipit (Anthus latistriatus) have been lumped into Anthus richardi following Dowsett and Forbes-Watson (1993). Southern populations of Jackson's Pipit (Anthus latistriatus) have been lumped into Anthus similis also following Dowsett and Forbes-Watson (1993).

Formerly considered conspecific with Long-billed Pipit (Anthus similis), but has different wing formula. Alternatively, often regarded as a melanistic form of African Pipit (Anthus cinnamomeus), and subspecies winterbottomi of African Pipit (Anthus cinnamomeus) placed with present species by some authors. Sometimes treated as a subspecies of expanded Australasian Pipit (Anthus novaeseelandiae).

Considered by some authors to be a subspecies of African Pipit (Anthus cinnamomeus).
