Hyuganatsu (Citrus tamurana, Japanese: 日向夏) is a citrus fruit and plant grown in Japan. The name comes from Hyūga , the ancient name of Miyazaki Prefecture in Kyushu , where the citrus is said to have originated, while "natsu" ( 夏 ) means summer.
Miyazaki Prefecture is on the eastern coast of the island of Kyushu, surrounded by the Pacific Ocean to the south and east, Ōita Prefecture to the north, and Kumamoto and Kagoshima prefectures to the west. It is one of only two locations on Earth where the fungus Chorioactis geaster is found. [5] Miyazaki is the home of the hyuganatsu fruit.

The sea surface microlayer (SML) at the air-sea interface is a distinct, under-studied habitat compared to the subsurface and copepods, important components of ocean food webs, have developed key adaptations to exploit this niche. [40] The ocean-spanning SML forms the boundary between the atmosphere and the hydrosphere.
Like the Hyuganatsu, the white pith (albedo) may be eaten. [ 4 ] The rind's cold-pressed oil has been studied for fragrance factors, and was found to contain limonene (roughly 80%), followed by the monoterpene Gamma-terpinene (10%), trans beta- farnesene , and myrcene , [ 7 ] showing similarity to Hyuganatsu's peel profile, though with ...
For instance, Chen Cangqi (681–757) noted: "kūnbù is produced in the South China Sea; its leaf is like a hand and the size is the same as a silver grass and a reed, is of red purple; the thin part of leaf is seaweed", [10] which is similar to wakame, arame, kurome, or kajime (Ecklonia cava).
