It is similar to the red-throated pipit A. cervinus, which is more heavily streaked and (in summer only) has an orange-red throat, and to the tree pipit A. trivialis, which is slightly larger, less heavily streaked, and has stronger facial markings and a shorter hind claw. The song of the meadow pipit accelerates towards the end while that of ...
They considered it a subspecies of meadow pipit and coined the trinomial name Anthus platensis japonicus. [2] [3] It was formerly considered to be conspecific with both the water pipit and rock pipit, before being split into the buff-bellied pipit alongside the American pipit. The differences between the two have long been noted, and are most ...

The tree pipit, which breeds in Europe and northern Asia, winters in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, a pattern of long-distance migration shared with other northerly species. Species may also be partly migratory, with northern populations being migratory but more temperate populations being resident (such as the meadow pipit in Europe).
