*Mandarins* and *tangerines* are synonomous. Satsuma and clementine are
just
varieties of mandarins.

I would agree with the latter statement, but not necessarily with the
former. AFAIK, tangerines are also a variety of mandarin. See

Bill is correct. Mandarin and tangerine are both common names for Citrus
reticulata. 'Satsuma' and 'Clementine' are varietal names of C. reticulata.
