This genus is in the subfamily Aurantioideae, which also includes genus Citrus. It is in the tribe Citreae and subtribe Citrinae, which are known technically as the citrus fruit trees.[1][3] Citropsis and the genus Atalantia are also called near-citrus fruit trees.[1] The genus Citropsis is thought to be an ancestral group of genus Citrus.[2] Fruit-bearing intergeneric hybrids have been established between Citropsis gabunensis and Citrus wakonai.[4] Demand for the roots may lead to the overexploitation of the tree.[5]
