Persimmon

How many calories are in a persimmon. I bought a Sharon Fruit today from Lidl to try it, and it looked like this

.

But I don't know how many calories are in it. It weighed 160g. The database entries (generic without a *) are quite different. They say:

Persimmons - Native, raw, 160 g 203cals 54carbs 1fat 1protein 22iron 0sugar
Persimmons - Japanese, raw, 160 g 112 30 0 1 1 20

Was mine a Japanese one? I am from the UK btw. Is the native one the native American fruit?

Thanks

I believe that's a Fuyu persimmon. Looked it up and it's in the database.
Enjoy, I love persimmons! Usually, they're not ripe until the fall here (in CA).
