Stillingia paucidentata, the Mojave toothleaf, is a species of flowering plant in the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae. [1] The Mojave toothleaf is endemic to southeastern California in the United States. [1] [2] It may occur in nearby western Arizona, but no specimens from that state have been conclusively confirmed. [2] It grows in sandy areas and dry slopes, flowering between March and May and fruiting in May and June. [2]

It was described by Sereno Watson in 1879. [3]
