''flexuosus'', is a type of long, slender fruit which tastes like a cucumber and looks somewhat like a cucumber inside. It is actually a variety of [[melon]] (''C. melo'') closest relative to the cucumber (''C. sativus''). It is also known as the '''yard-long cucumber''', '''snake cucumber''', '''snake melon''', and '''uri'''. It should not be confused with the [[snake gourd]]s (''Trichosanthes'' spp.). The skin is very thin, light green, and bumpless. It has no bitterness and the fruit is almost always used without peeling.<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> * [http://www.ibiblio.org/pfaf/cgi-bin/arr_html?Cucumis+melo Cucumbers, Armenian]: Plants for a Future database<br /> {{unimelb|Cucumis.html#melo-flexuosus}}<br /> * [http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/MV056 Fact sheet from the University of Florida (with photo)]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Cucurbitaceae]]<br /> [[Category:vegetable-like fruits]]<br /> [[Category:Flora of Armenia]]<br /> <br /> <br /> {{vegetable-stub}}</div>
