Magnolia jaenensis is similar to M. yarumalensis but differs in the shape of the leaves and sepals, number of petals, stem and carpels. Magnolia manguillo differs from M. henaoi, M. bankardiorum, and M. virolinensis in the length of the petiole, number of secondary leaf veins, shape and length of the vaginal hypsophyll, shape of sepals, and number of carpels.
