We present high resolution optical spectroscopy of three candidate members of the Taurus-Auriga star forming region. Based on the spectral type, the strength, profile and width of the Hα line, the detected lithium at 6708Å, the location of these objects in the H-R diagram and the comparison with similar objects belonging to young stellar associations, we determine that they are bona fide members of the SFR with ages of ∼3Myr, and have masses at or below the substellar limit. At least in one case, there is active accretion from a circum(sub)stellar disk. This result suggests that high mass brown dwarfs go through a classical T Tauri phase and form, as stars do, from the collapse and fragmentation of a molecular cloud.
