Paramigyna (from the Greek to mix with). Rutaceae, tribe Citreae. Evergreen climbing shrubs native to India and distantly related to the orange, but having fruits filled with gum.

Leaves alternate, unifoliolate, articulated with the long petiole; spines recurved: flowers solitary or in clusters in the axils of the leaves, large, white, 4-5-merous with 8-10 free stamens; ovary 3-5-celled with 1-2 ovules in each cell: fruit globose or elliptical, gummy, with a lemon- like peel.—Several species are known. The following is being tested as a stock by the USDA.

Several other species occur in the Indo-Malayan region: two have recently been described from the Philippines: P. longi- pedunculata, Merrill, a scandent shrub, closely related to P. monophylla, from which it differs in its longer peduncles and several other characters; P. mindanaensis, Merrill, a nearly glabrous scandent shrub, with shining leaves and glabrous fruit, usually curved.
