Wagtails and Pipits: The Wagtails have been rearranged based on Drovetski et al. (2018) and Harris et al. (2018).
Based on Van Ells and Norambuena (2018), the New World Pipits have been rearranged. Futher, two species have been split and one has been lumped.
Peruvian Pipit, Anthus peruvianus, has been split from Yellowish Pipit, Anthus lutescens
Puna Pipit, Anthus brevirostris, has been split from Short-billed Pipit, Anthus furcatus.
South Georgia Pipit, Anthus antarcticus, has been lumped into Correndera Pipit, Anthus correndera due to very small DNA differences between them.
