Rubus ictus is a rare North American species of flowering plants in the rose family. It is native to the southeastern United States, in the States of Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, and Georgia.[2][3]

The genetics of Rubus is extremely complex, so that it is difficult to decide on which groups should be recognized as species. There are many rare species with limited ranges such as this. Further study is suggested to clarify the taxonomy.[4]
