About the Ochre-breasted Pipit

The ochre-breasted pipit (Anthus nattereri) is a Vulnerable species of bird in the family Motacillidae, the wagtails and pipits. It is found in Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay. The ochre-breasted pipit was originally described by Philip Sclater in 1878 with its current binomial Anthus nattereri. What is now the type specimen had originally been identified as a correndera pipit (A. correndera) but Sclater noted enough differences to reclassify the bird. His specific epithet honors Johann Natterer, who had collected the type specimen. The ochre-breasted pipit is monotypic.
