Bates 1888: 272 (Costa Rica - as Rutela viridiaurata ); Ohaus 1934: 116 (Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru - as Rutela viridiaurata ); Blackwelder 1944: 239 (Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru - as Rutela viridiaurata ); Machatschke 1972: 49 (Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru - as Rutela viridiaurata ); Jameson 1998: 145 (Colombia, Costa Rica, Panama).

Note. The records of Microrutela viridiaurata from countries other than those named by Jameson (1998: 145) are probably due to misidentifications. We regard this species as not occurring in the research area.
