Rubus probus, commonly known as Atherton raspberry or wild raspberry, is a scrambling shrub in the family Rosaceae native to Malesia and Queensland.
Atherton raspberry is a rampant grower and, like most Rubus species, can form dense thorny thickets. The leaves are compound, usually with five ovate leaflets that are long and wide and have deeply toothed margins. Flowering occurs in spring and summer, followed by bright red aggregate fruit which are in diameter. The fruits are edible.
It has been commercially cultivated to a limited extent in Australia as a cool season punnet fruit.
