Wikipedia describes your kabocha thing as known as 'Japanese pumpkin' in australia, but it looks to be *too green* and too small. I found seeds for 'Pumkin Jap' for sale on various Australian websites described as 'cucurbita pepo' and 'cucurbita moschata', so what i'm getting from this is 'pumpkins are wildly hybridisable and form local subspecies very easily'.
