|discussion=<p>Crataegus rubella 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. Crataegus straminea, somewhat arbitrarily synonymized here, represents uncommon intermediates with C. communis and shares the broader leaf shape with the latter but has two to three lobes per side of the form of C. rubella.</p>
