This melon is cantalope not honeydew melon. I've included the google image search that shows that it is a cantalope:https://www.google.com/search?q=%E5%93%88%E5%AF%86%E7%93%9C&safe=off&espv=2&biw=1214&bih=688&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAWoVChMIluvVl826xwIVUJSICh3RCwJ1

Editor:
1) It's spelled "cantaloupe", not "cantalope".

2) Your link doesn't show that it is "not honeydew melon".
The flesh is green like a honeydew melon in some of the pictures, such as these:

3) Taiwan Panorama articles translate it as "honeydew melon" (and also sometimes as "cantaloupe"):
西瓜、哈密瓜等水果也因為生產過剩,市場價格差,大家紛紛放棄種植
Then local farmers tried honeydew melons and watermelons. But with overproduction and consequent low market prices, everyone gave up on planting these too.

看上了宜蘭地區桶柑、金棗、哈密瓜種植繁多
they were delighted to find that Ilan County was abundant with tankan citrus, oval kumquat, and honeydew melon,
