Cucurbita maxima (binomen ab Antonio Nicolao Duchesne anno 1786 statutum) est species plantarum sub climate tropico in America australi orta, ibi et alibi propter fructus edules culta.
Anno 1573 in Anglia Thomas Tusser inter herbas et holera, quae bullire et butyro linere oportebat, "cucurbitas" enumeravit "mense Maio" serendas.[1] Colonus mox Thomas Harriot, in Virginia profectus, species plures huius generis ab indigenis cultas visit, inter quas una, cuius fructus duos menses maturabant.[2]
