The Gallery Search for Australasian Pipit shows a number of Richard's Pipits, particularly on the second page.
I suppose they come from a pre-split time?
Is it OK to change all of these to Anthus richardi ?
Anthus novaeseelandiae (called Richard's Pipit pre-split) was split into five species:
Australasian Pipit - Anthus novaeseelandiae
Richard's Pipit - Anthus richardi
Paddyfield Pipit - Anthus rufulus
African Pipit - Anthus cinnamomeus
Mountain Pipit - Anthus hoeschi
Anthus novaeseelandiae now applies only to the Australasian birds in the gallery (even though some of them are named Richard's Pipit).
The following, therefore, should probably have their scientific names changed:

Should be Paddyfield Pipit - Anthus rufulus - Changed

This photo is used for Opus page of Richard's Pipit (incorrectly).
