Previously regarded as conspecific with Long-billed Pipit (Anthus similis). Subspecies winterbottomi of African Pipit (Anthus cinnamomeus) has been treated by some authors as a synonym of nominate subspecies of present species. Subspecies chersophilus possibly inseparable from schoutedeni, and both possibly better merged with nominate.

The following 4 subspecies are recognised:

• schoutedeni Chapin, 1937   -  South-eastern Gabon and southern PRCongo east to southern DRCongo, south to south-central and south-eastern Angola.
• nyassae (Neumann, 1906)   -  Zambia, south-western and south-eastern Tanzania, Malawi and north-western Mozambique.
• chersophilus Clancey, 1989   -  North-eastern Namibia and northern Botswana.
• frondicolus Clancey, 1964   -  Zimbabwe and adjacent southern Mozambique.
