Lime or lemon
Citrus fruit is fruit from trees of the genus Citrus—oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, and their relatives.
These fruits share a segmented structure, thick rind, and acidic juice rich in vitamin C.
The term often appears in dietary contexts: Citrus fruits are good sources of vitamin C.
