On the basis of molecular phylogenetic analyses of the Persea group (Lauraceae) using the sequences of ITS and LEAFY intron II, the species Phoebe chinensis Chun, P. minutiflora H. W. Li, P. faberi (Hemsl. ) Chun, P. microphylla H. W. Li and P. forrestii W. W. Smith, which are characterised by the persistent perianth lobes loosely clasping the base of fruit, apex extrorse, as well as globose fruit, were transferred into the genus Machilis.  Accordingly, a new name Machilus montana L. Li, J. Li & H. W. Li, as well as three new combinations M. minutiflora (H. W. Li) L. Li, J. Li & H. W. Li, M. microphylla (H. W. Li) L. Li, J. Li & H. W. Li and M. forrestii (W. W. Smith) L. Li, J. Li & H. W. Li were reported here.
