Cucurbita pedatifolia is a xerophyte plant species of the genus Cucurbita.[1][2][3] It is native to Querétaro, Mexico. It has not been domesticated.[2] While C. pedatifolia has been cross bred, results have met with limited success.[4] It does not cross well with other species of Cucurbita.[5] It is a close relative of Cucurbita radicans.[4] Geographic location and genetics make it highly likely that Cucurbita scabridifolia is a naturally occurring hybrid of Cucurbita foetidissima and C. pedatifolia.[6] It also has some mesophyte traits may represent a transitional state between the mesophytic Cucurbita and the xerophytic Cucurbita.[7]

The species was formally described by Liberty Hyde Bailey in 1943, in Gentes Herbarum.[1] Cucurbita moorei was at one time described as a separate species native to the vicinity of Ixmiquilpan, Mexico within Cucurbita, but now is considered a synonym for C. pedatifolia.[2]

Cucurbita pedatifolia was first formally described by Liberty Hyde Bailey in 1948, in Gentes Herbarum.[2]
