See text Citropsis is a genus of flowering plants in the citrus family, Rutaceae.

It is in the tribe Citreae and subtribe Citrinae, which are known technically as the citrus fruit trees.

[3][5] Citropsis and the genus Atalantia are also called near-citrus fruit trees.

[4] Fruit-bearing intergeneric hybrids have been established between Citropsis gabunensis and Citrus wakonai.

[6] Demand for the roots, supposedly an aphrodisiac, may lead to the overexploitation of the tree.
