"Utricularia" sect. "Setiscapella" is a section in the genus "Utricularia" that contains small or medium-sized terrestrial or subaquatic species. Most plants in this section are endemic to Central and South America with the exceptions of "Utricularia stanfieldii", which is endemic to Africa, and "Utricularia subulata" which is almost pantropical. It was first described by John Hendley Barnhart in 1916 at the rank of genus. In 1973, Sadashi Komiya reduced the genus to a subgenus of the genus "Utricularia". In his 1986 monograph on the genus, Peter Taylor reorganized the genus and reduced this to the rank of section.Taylor, Peter. (1989). "The genus "Utricularia": A taxonomic monograph."
