Are there words in Spanish for cantalope and honey dew melons?
I am working in Matamoros, Mexico and when I ask people there what they call cantalope or honey dew melons I get a blank stare. Are there words in Spanish for cantalope and honey dew melons?

Honeydew melon - melón verde, honeydew , casaba o Melón Tuna
cantaloupe - melón cantaloupe
You can always explain or describe the fruit you have in mind.
per my weekly ad from Supermercado Mi Pueblo, cantaloupe is "melon chino".
Honeydew melon - melón verde
Cantaloupe - melón, melón chino
