|discussion=<p><i>Rubus vestitus</i> can be distinguished, especially from the closely related <i>R. bifrons</i> and <i>R. ulmifolius</i>, by its long-stipitate-glandular hairs, particularly in the inflorescence, and terminal primocane leaflets that are typically suborbiculate and abaxially densely tomentose. <i>Rubus allegheniensis</i> can possess similar glandular hairs; it does not have pink petals, thyrsiform inflorescences, and rounded and abaxially densely tomentose, often whitened terminal leaflets.</p><!--
--><p><i>Rubus vestitus</i> has not yet been found in Washington, but it is likely there. Because of the overall similarity of <i>R. vestitus</i> to <i>R. bifrons</i>, it is possible that this potentially weedy species is widespread, but rare and possibly overlooked, occurring as far south as California. In Oregon, <i>R. vestitus</i> prefers shady habitats (B. Wilson, pers. comm.).</p>
