'''Citrus longispina''' is a species of [[citrus]] that belongs to the family [[Rutaceae]]. It is also known as the '''long-spined citrus'''. This species is native to [[Southeast Asia]], particularly in regions such as [[Vietnam]] and [[Cambodia]].

== Description ==
The '''Citrus longispina''' is a small tree or shrub that typically grows to a height of 3-6 meters. It is characterized by its long, sharp spines, which can reach up to 10 cm in length. The leaves of the Citrus longispina are evergreen, with a glossy, dark green upper surface and a lighter green lower surface. The flowers are white and fragrant, and the fruit is a small, round citrus fruit with a rough, greenish-yellow skin.

== Cultivation and Uses ==
The '''Citrus longispina''' is primarily grown for its ornamental value due to its unique, long spines. However, the fruit is also edible and is sometimes used in local cuisines in its native regions. The fruit is sour and is often used in the same way as a [[lemon]] or [[lime]]. The tree is also used in traditional medicine in some cultures, particularly for its antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties.

== Conservation Status ==
The '''Citrus longispina''' is not currently listed as threatened or endangered. However, like many other species of citrus, it is susceptible to a number of diseases and pests, including the [[citrus canker]] and the [[Asian citrus psyllid]], which can pose significant threats to its survival.
