Please suggest id for this Rubus? recorded from Shillong Meghalaya, in June 2017, flowers are invariably without petals, fruits were not observed at that time..

Can it be Rubus paniculatus?

Most likely to be Rubus assamensis. These are without petals. Other characters that are observable seem to suggest it.

Thanks a lot ..., yes, it matches with Rubus assamensis, I hope it is new addition to eFI..
