Crookneck squash, also known as yellow squash, is a cultivar of Cucurbita pepo,[3] the species that also includes some pumpkins and most other summer squashes. The plants are bushy[3] and do not spread like the plants of winter squash and pumpkin.[4] Most often used as a summer squash, it is characterized by its yellow skin (which may be smooth or bumpy)[4] and sweet yellow flesh, as well as its distinctive curved stem-end or "crooked neck".[5] It should not be confused with crookneck cultivars of Cucurbita moschata, such as the winter squash 'Golden Cushaw',[6] or the vining summer squash 'Tromboncino'.[3] Its name distinguishes it from another similar-looking variety of C. pepo, the straightneck squash, which is also usually yellow.[7][8][9] There is one similar non-edible C. pepo variety: C. pepo var. ovifera.[10]

Yellow crookneck squash are generally harvested immature, when they are less than two inches in diameter,[4][5] since the skin toughens and the quality degrades as the squash reaches full maturity.[11]
