Rubus subgen. Dalibardastrum Focke, Biblioth. Bot. 17(Heft 72): 39. 1910.

Shrubs or subshrubs, usually densely bristly, less often with needle-like or small prickles. Leaves simple; stipules persistent or caducous, free, on stem near base of petiole, broad, divided. Flowers bisexual, usually in cymose panicles or short subracemes or several in clusters or solitary. Aggregate fruit adnate to torus, falling from base of torus at maturity, not hollow.

Eleven species (ten endemic) in China.
