Rubus trivialis, commonly known as southern dewberry, is a species of flowering plant in the rose family (Rosaceae) native to the southern United States and northern Mexico. [1] It is distinguished from northern dewberry (Rubus flagellaris) by its hispid stems. [2] It is a perennial herb and blooms March to April. [3]

R. trivialis has been observed within habitats such as tidal marshes, longleaf pinelands, and coastal hammocks, as well as within disturbed habitats such as alongside roads. [4]
