4. Rubus phoenicolasius Maxim. Wineberry. Map 1130-1. Miss 

 Edna Banta found this species in 1935 to be well established in Crow 

 Hollow near Hanover, Jefferson County, and says she first observed it 

 there in 1924. In 1932 R. C. Friesner found it established on a hillside 

 near Marengo Cave, Crawford County. In 1938 Wm. B. Barnes sent me a 

 specimen from the T. C. Harp farm in sec. 4 of McCameron Township, 

 Martin County. He informs me that it is well established in deep wooded 

 ravines near and in the vicinity of Salem Church. Since the woods about 

 there are in the Resettlement Area, they will be protected from fire and 

 grazing and there is little doubt that it will persist there indefinitely. 

 It has been reported from three counties in Ohio and probably has a wider 

 distribution in Indiana than our records show. It was introduced into the 

 United States in 1876 and has already escaped in the eastern part of the 

 United States. 



Nat. of Korea, Japan, and n. China.
