Magenta is a color made up of equal parts of red and blue light. This would be the precise definition of the color. It is a pure chroma on the color wheel between violet and red.
Magenta, in the Munsell Colour System, lies between on the Color wheel between purple (defined in Munsell's system as being equivalent to red-violet) and red, and therefore it is a pure chroma.
In popular usage, the term magenta itself can be used to indicate a variety of colors. For the names of various of the colors in the magenta range, see the section at the bottom of this article called "Shades of Magenta".
Magenta is not a spectral but an extraspectral color: it cannot be generated by light of a single wavelength. Humans, being trichromats, can only see as far as 380 nanometers into the spectrum, i.e., as far as violet.
