There is a big confusion about these 2 terms .. but my definition is the scientific one.

I do not want to waste my time, but just for fun:

1. Did you really read the article you mentioned above Question
"....Botanically it is identified as Citrus maxima Merr., (C. grandis Osbeck; C. decumana L.). ..."
http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/morton/pummelo.html

citrus maxima = citrus grandis = citrus decumana

2. Wikipedia as scientific source Rolling Eyes Laughing Laughing

Pomelo is just local word, in some countries for citrus grandis, in some countries for citrus paradisi, nothing less, nothing more. Wink For example, in my country we call citrus grandis - pomelo and citrus paradisi - Grapefruit
