Rubus velox is a rare North American species of bramble. It has been found only in Texas.Biota of North America Program 2014 county distribution map Bailey, Liberty Hyde 1923. Gentes Herbarum; Occasional Papers on the Kinds of Plants 1(4): 168–169, figures 73–74
The genetics of Rubus is extremely complex, so it is difficult to decide which groups should be recognized as species. As there are many rare species with limited ranges such as this, further study is needed to clarify the taxonomy.Flora of North America, Rubus Linnaeus, 1754. Bramble
