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

The species was formally described by Liberty Hyde Bailey in 1943, in Gentes Herbarum.[2]
