Taxonomic notes

Synonym: Rubus lucidus Rydberg

Description

A description of Rubus trivialis is provided in The Flora of North America.

Distribution

Ecology

Habitat

R. trivialis has been found in coastal hammocks, swamp edges, tidal marshes, longleaf pinelands, longleaf pine-palmetto pastures, Red-Gum-Magnolia stands, river floodplains, slash pine savannahs, and pine flatwoods.[1] It is also found in disturbed areas including along roads, waste fields, and along railroads.[1]

Associated species: Clematis crispa, Carex hyalinolepis, Scirpus fluviatilis, Salix spp., Polyugonum amphibium, Diospyros virginiana, and Cephalanthus occidentalis.[2]

Phenology

R. trivialis has been observed to flower from February to May with peak inflorescence in March.[3]

Seed dispersal

This species is thought to be dispersed by consumption by vertebrates.[4]

Fire ecology

Populations of Rubus trivialis have been known to persist through repeated annual burning.[5]

Herbivory and toxicology

Rubus trivialis has been observed at the Archbold Biological Station to host bees from the Halictidae family such as Lasioglossum placidensis and L. puteulanum[6]

Conservation, cultivation, and restoration

Cultural use

Historically, in Appalachia, tea from the roots was used to treat cold symptoms, and the same tea or juice from the fruit was used to cure dysentery.[7]

The entire plant can be consumed in various ways, but the fruits are especially popular to eat fresh or to make jellies and drinks.[8]
