Responsibilities Overload

When you started working, there are always the grey area where whose responsibilities fall on whose shoulders. Though you may know  quite well and you are not the type to push your job to others, this doesn't mean that you won't be thrown with other non-related responsibilities. It came to my attention that even my superior isn't aware of whose responsibilities are those and he would simply ask me to handle it. Well, yeah, he is my direct superior and he doesn't really know my responsibilities and will ask me do something outside my scope. Question is what do I do with this kind of request? Ignore it? Just do it? or choose to inform the other party (whose responsibilities are to handle this request)? I make the choice to speak with the one really responsible of it and, thank God, she knows what she is supposed to do and complete it.
