Puna Pipit (Anthus brevirostris)
About the Puna Pipit
The puna pipit (Anthus brevirostris) is a species of bird in the family Motacillidae, the wagtails and pipits. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, and Peru. The puna pipit was described in 1875 with the binomial Anthus brevirostris. However, it was later reclassified as a subspecies of the short-billed pipit (A. furcatus). Following a study published in 2018 most taxonomic systems reclassified it as a full species. The independent South American Classification Committee retains the puna pipit as a subspecies of the short-billed. The puna pipit is monotypic.
