Caryodaphnopsis is a genus of 15 species belonging to the family Lauraceae of flowering plants. It is distributed in tropical areas in southern North America, northern South America, and East and Southeast Asia.
They vary from 50-m-high trees to small trees or shrubs in lowland evergreen forest and rainforest.
Caryodaphnopsis is a tropical genus distributed across the Pacific, with a marked geographical disjunction between Southeast Asia (South China, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Indonesia, and the Philippines) and tropical America (Costa Rica[1] to Brazil, crossing Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, and Venezuela).
