Dodoens 1583 has a section on some of the cucurbitaceae. http://imgbase-scd-ulp.u-strasbg.fr/displayimage.php?album=351&pos=671 While "Zvcca indiana" is mentioned in a chapter of Castore Durante's Herbario nuovo (1585), I cannot find it in the Dodoens chapters, though I have to admit that I only quickly went through them.
