Mung bean, also known as green gram, golden gram, and green soy, is the seed of Vigna radiata which is native to India. The beans are small, ovoid in shape, and green in color. The English word "mung" derives from the Hindi mung. In the Philippines, it is called munggo or monggo.
The mung bean is one of many species recently moved from the genus Phaseolus to Vigna and is still often seen cited as Phaseolus aureus or Phaseolus radiatus. These are all the same plant.

Mung (hmong) beans made their appearance in the late 60's and early 70's, and are used mainly in Thailand, Viet-Nam, and other Southeast Asian countries. The name derives from the "Hmong" people, hill-tribes in that region.
