Riverbank Grape - Vitis riparia I find wild grapes to be difficult to ID, but I think this is V. riparia because the underside of the leaves was green with white hairs only along the veins. Also, the leaves were coarsely toothed and alternate.

Riverbank Grape - Vitis riparia

I find wild grapes to be difficult to ID, but I think this is V. riparia because the underside of the leaves was green with white hairs only along the veins. Also, the leaves were coarsely toothed and alternate. I have no idea why some of the berries were shriveled and gross-looking...maybe mold or pest-related?

Habitat: In a clearing near a pond.
