It is native to New Guinea.[2]

The genus name of Lamiodendron is in honour of Herman Johannes Lam (1892–1977), a Dutch botanist.[3] The Latin specific epithet of magnificum is derived from magnificus meaning magnificent.[4] Both genus and species were first described and published in Nova Guinea, Bot., Vol.8 on pages 379-381 in 1957.[2]
