Ecological Risk Screening Summary - Acestrorhynchus grandoculis - Uncertain Risk

Species that are considered uncertain risk need a more in-depth assessment beyond the Risk Summary to better define the species’ risk to U.S. environments.

Acestrorhynchus grandoculis is a freshwater fish species native to northern South America. No introductions of this species have been reported. More information is needed to understand the impacts from introductions of A. grandoculis; absence of this information makes the certainty of this assessment low. Climate match with the contiguous United States is low. Overall risk posed by A. grandoculis is uncertain.
