R. ellipticus was introduced to Hawaii in 1961 and has since
replaced native species in the resident plant communities rapidly
(Jacobi and Warshauer, 1992; Lowe et al., 2000; Stratton, 1996).
R. ellipticus has been considered a major threat to the Ola’a Forest
Tract of Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park. The plant forms impenetrable
thickets thereby threatening native lowland wet forests
and displacing native plant species, including the native Hawaiian
raspberry Rubus hawaiiensis (Stratton, 1996). In Australia, it
is confined to the coastal strip of southern Queensland from
Wide Bay to northern New South Wales (NSW), and there are
some specimens from the central coast region of NSW (Evans
et al., 2007). First reports of it being naturalized in Queensland
were in 1912 where it has since been declared noxious
