|discussion=<p><i>Crataegus rubella</i> is wide-ranging and common in the southeastern United States. The species is one of the more distinct taxa of ser. Intricatae, with its somewhat narrow leaves with distinctively shaped lobes. <i>Crataegus</i> straminea, somewhat arbitrarily synonymized here, represents uncommon intermediates with <i>C. communis</i> and shares the broader leaf shape with the latter but has two to three lobes per side of the form of <i>C. rubella</i>.</p>
