Originally described in the genus Bignonia in 1879, it was later transferred to the monotypic genus Saritaea as the sole species Saritaea magnifica, but has since been restored to Bignonia. It is native to Panama and northern South America (Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela), but has been introduced elsewhere.
