Citrus × latifolia
1951Summary
Persian lime (Citrus × latifolia), also known by other common names such as seedless lime, Bearss lime, and Tahiti lime, is a citrus fruit species of hybrid origin, known only in cultivation. The Persian lime is a triploid cross between Key lime (Citrus × aurantiifolia) and lemon (Citrus × limon).

The fruit turns yellow as it ripens, but it is universally sold while still green....read more on Wikipedia.
