III, C.D.—This tree, still little known outside of India and Ceylon, is the type of the genus Atalantia, and one of the promising species for trial as a stock on which to graft other citrus frs., and also for use in breeding new types of citrus frs. The frs. yield an oil which in India is considered a valuable application in chronic rheumatism. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
