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]
