|discussion=<p><i>Rubus allegheniensis</i> consists of erect-arching, usually well-armed plants, usually densely stipitate-glandular with flattened to cupulate glands, particularly about the inflorescence.</p><!--
--><p>The Menominee, Meskwaki, and Potawatomi used root extracts of <i>Rubus allegheniensis</i> to treat eye irritation (H. H. Smith 1923, 1928, 1933). The Ojibwa used boiled extracts of the canes as a diuretic and a root extract for treating diarrhea (Smith 1932). <i>Rubus allegheniensis</i> is introduced in British Columbia and California, where rare and in at least California probably no more than a waif.</p><!--
--><p><i>Rubus</i> montanus (Porter) Porter, a name that has been used for this species, is a later homonym of R. montanus Libert ex Lejeune.</p><!--
--><p>The following nothospecies names are based on putative hybrids involving <i>Rubus allegheniensis</i> and: <i>R. canadensis</i> (R. ×forestalis L. H. Bailey, R. ×immanis Ashe); <i>R. flagellaris</i> (R. ×boyntonii Ashe, R. ×fraternalis L. H. Bailey [based on R. ×fraternus Brainerd & Peitersen (not R. fraternus Gremli), R. ×licens L. H. Bailey, R. ×ostryifolius Rydberg); <i>R. pensilvanicus</i> (R. ×avipes L. H. Bailey, R. ×floricomus Blanchard, R. ×orarius Blanchard); <i>R. setosus</i> (R. ×abbrevians Blanchard, R. ×aculiferus Fernald, R. ×adenocaulis Fernald, R. ×angustifoliatus L. H. Bailey, R. ×ascendens Blanchard, R. ×atwoodii L. H. Bailey, R. ×clausenii L. H. Bailey, R. ×flavinanus Blanchard, R. ×frondisentis Blanchard, R. ×perspicuus L. H. Bailey, R. ×ravus L. H. Bailey).</p>
