Horovitzia cnidoscoloides is a plant species in the family Caricaceae, endemic to the cloud forest of Sierra de Juarez in Oaxaca, Mexico at elevations of 800 to 1600 meters.[1] It is the only species in the genus Horovitzia. The type species was collected in Sonora Mexico in Chihuahua, Guasarema, Rio Mayo, 10 August 1936.
