List of Mango Fruits: 100+ Mango Varieties and Types

Picture: Mangoes

Mangoes are among the most diverse tropical fruits in the world. Although most mangoes belong to the same species, Mangifera indica, centuries of cultivation, natural variation, and selective breeding have produced hundreds of named varieties. These mangoes can differ considerably in size, shape, skin color, flesh texture, sweetness, aroma, fiber content, and ripening season.

Some mango varieties are famous for their rich, buttery flesh, while others are prized for their firm texture and ability to remain relatively fiber-free. There are also mangoes with green, yellow, orange, red, or multicolored skin. The fruit may be oval, round, elongated, kidney-shaped, or distinctly flattened, depending on the variety.

Mango diversity is particularly noticeable across South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Caribbean, Central America, and other tropical and subtropical regions. India alone has an enormous number of traditional and commercial cultivars, including internationally recognized varieties such as Alphonso, Kesar, Dasheri, Langra, and Chausa. Other regions have developed their own distinctive mangoes, including Kent, Keitt, Tommy Atkins, Haden, Ataulfo, and Julie.
