Mysterious pepper

Greets,
I've got a mysterious pepper... it should have been a cumari (the small yellow rounded pods), but it doesn't looks like it, except the color... ^^
So it could be a cross, what are you guessing for the other parent ? :D
Or a mistake with the seeds, but it doesn't seems like a specific strain, do you know what it could be ?
(the ripe pod is 4cm long)

It's not looking like lemon drop, which i also grow. Lemon drop pods don't have the same size, shape and kind of yellow.
And the plant is a chinense for sure (growth habit and flowers).
But yes, beni highland looks like it a little, good guess ^^, and the seed seller have some too, so it may be a mistake in seed management, or maybe a cross with it as there is a lot of pod shape variation on the plant.
The heat is pretty hot with a strong citrus flavor, i'll have to try some more pods soon.
