Cucurbita californica is a species of flowering plant in the squash family.
The species was first identified by Sereno Watson in 1876. There is disagreement about whether this is a separate species from "Cucurbita palmata". In 1883 botanist C. C. Parry reported it was distinguishable from "C. palmata" by its smaller fruit and foliage, and fruit that is a dull green with thin ridges. It is similar to "Cucurbita cordata", "Cucurbita cylindrata", "Cucurbita digitata", and "Cucurbita palmata" and all these species hybridize readily.
