Taxonomy: Basileuterus signatus Berlepsch and Stolzmann, 1906, Idma, Santa Ana, Peru.
Closely related to B. luteoviridis and B. nigrocristatus. A specimen record from Colombia (at 3400 m) may represent an additional, undescribed, race, but the specimen apparently resembles nominate race of B. luteoviridis and may belong with that species. Two subspecies currently recognized.

- signatus Berlepsch & Stolzmann, 1906 - Andes in SC Peru.
