Cucurbita foetidissima, also known as buffalo gourd, is a tuberous plant found in the central and southwestern United States and northern Mexico. It has multiple common names and was first collected in Mexico by Alexander von Humboldt and Aimé Bonpland. This plant is well-adapted to desert environments and is high in protein, carbohydrates, and oil. It is consumed by both humans and animals, and its fruit goes through a final gourd stage when mature. It is believed to have evolved as a hybrid of two other Cucurbita species. The plant requires little water and grows best in semiarid and arid regions. Its leaves are heart-shaped and its flowers are borne singly. The fruit is about 7-10 cm in diameter and contains 292-315 seeds. The plant also has a fleshy tap root that can weigh up to 72 kg. Cucurbita foetidissima is native to North America and can be found in various states in the US and in several regions in Mexico. It has many uses, including as a potential crop for arid lands, food (fresh, seeds, oil, protein, starch), fodder, and for commercial and medical purposes
