Rubus lambertianus is a flowering plant species in the genus Rubus found in Southern China (including Hainan), Taiwan, Japan, and Thailand. [1] Its ploidy is 2n = 4X (tetraploid). [2] The ellagitannins lambertianin A, B, C and D can be found in R. lambertianus. [3]
Rubus lambertianus is a lianoid, semi-deciduous shrub that can grow 3 m (9.8 ft) tall. Flowers are white and 7–9 mm (0.28–0.35 in) in diameter. Mature berries are red and 6–8 mm (0.24–0.31 in) in diameter. In China, it occurs on slopes, roadsides, montane valleys, stony ravines, grasslands, thickets, sparse forests, and forest margins at elevations of 200–2,500 m (660–8,200 ft) asl. [1] In Taiwan it is common in thickets at medium elevations. [5]

It is widely distributed across much of Europe and Asia from Ireland and Portugal as far east as Xinjiang Province in western China. It has also become sparingly naturalized in scattered locations in Argentina, Canada, and the United States.

Lambertianin C is an ellagitannin.
Sanguiin H-6 is an ellagitannin.
Lambertianin D is an ellagitannin found in Rubus lambertianus.
Sanguisorbic acid is a constituent of some ellagitannins. It is constituted by a hexahydroxydiphenic acid unit linked by an O-C bond to a gallic acid. The differences with its isomers, valoneic acid and nonahydroxytriphenic acid, are that the hydroxyl that links the hexahydroxydiphenoyl (HHDP) group to the galloyl group belongs to the galloyl group in valoneic acid, while in nonahydroxytriphenic acid, the hexahydroxydiphenic acid unit is linked by a C-C bond to gallic acid.
Rubus tricolor is an evergreen prostrate shrub, native to southwestern China. Leaves are dark green above, pale green below, and stems have red bristles. It has white flowers in summer and edible red fruit. It grows approximately 0.3 m (0.98 ft) high and usually forming a vigorously spreading, dense mat.
