The mandarin orange, also known as the mandarin, is the fruit of the mandarin tree (or bush).
Among the most common types of mandarins are Citrus reticulata (common mandarins), Citrus unshiu, Citrus reshni, and various hybrids. Clementines and tangerines are also marketed as "mandarins".
Mandarin orange fruits are small (4 to 8 cm). Their color is orange, orange-yellow, or orange-red. Their shape is spherical or oblate (flattened at the poles).
The skin is thin and peels off easily. Their easiness to peel is an important advantage of mandarin oranges over other citrus fruits that all are more difficult to peel.
Just like with other citrus fruits, the endocarp (inner flesh) is separated into segments, which in their turn consist of a large number of elongated cells.
The fruits may be seedless or contain a small number of seeds
