pomelo

noun3

1. •
   The large fruit of the Citrus maxima (syn. C. grandis), native to South Asia and Southeast Asia, with a thick green or yellow rind, a thick white pith, and semi-sweet translucent pale flesh.
2. •
   The tree which produces this fruit.
3. •
   (US, no longer used) The grapefruit.

   • The pomelo has unfortunately been marketed under the name “grape-fruit,” and it is doubtful whether the correct name, pomelo, will ever displace the trade name. — 1911
