The authors placed the new species into Peter Taylor's section Psyllosperma, which has subsequently been merged with section Foliosa based on molecular phylogenetics.
It has been placed in section Aranella and appears to be most closely related to U. costata, though it differs from all members of section Aranella in its rostrate upper calyx lobe.
