Micromelum

The inflorescence is a large panicle, sometimes flat-topped like a corymb, growing from the leaf axils or at the ends of branches.

The flowers have five narrow petals in shades of green, white, or yellow, borne in a hairy, cup-like calyx with five lobes or five separate sepals.

It is yellow, orange, or red, and sometimes fleshy, but it lacks the pulp present in some related fruits, notably citrus.

It is the only genus of the subtribe Micromelinae that are known technically as the "very remote citroid fruit trees".
