Magnolia sect. Talauma is a section of the genus Magnolia in the family Magnoliaceae. It was formerly treated as the separate genus Talauma. It contains only New World species,[1] and is native to Mexico, Panama, Brazil, and the West Indies.[2]

Taxonomy

In 1879, Antoine de Jussieu created the genus Talauma for the species Magnolia plumieri (now a synonym of Magnolia dodecapetala). In 1866, Henri Baillon reduced the genus to a section of Magnolia, M. sect. Talauma. The taxon has also been treated as a subgenus and as a subsection of Magnolia. It contains about 96 species.[2]
