타마울리파나초령목-[정명] Magnolia tamaulipana A.Vazquez

Magnolia tamaulipana is a species of plant in the family Magnoliaceae. It is endemic to northeastern Mexico.

Range and habitat

Magnolia tamaulipana is native to the Sierra Madre Oriental of Nuevo León and Tamaulipas states. It is known from only five locations, all within El Cielo Biosphere Reserve. The potential forest distribution for the species is estimated at 2,458 km2.

It inhabits montane cloud forests between 1,180 to 1,500 meters elevation.

Ecology

Magnolia tamaulipana is pollinated by beetles, including two species of the scarab beetles Cyclocephala and other beetles in family Staphylinidae. The plants produce large protogynous flowers which are viable for up to 24 hours. The flowers are thermogenic, and the heat produced dissipates the flower scent to attract pollinating beetles.
