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.
Amniataba percoides is a demersal fish endemic to parts of Australia. A. percoides is found in the aquarium trade. Introductions and established populations have been reported for the species in other areas of Australia. There is no information on impacts of introductions associated with this species, therefore the history of invasiveness is Data Deficient. The overall Climate 6 score for the contiguous United States was High. Areas of high match were located in Florida and along the United States Mexico border from Arizona to Texas. The lack of introduction impact information makes the certainty of this assessment Low. The overall risk assessment category is Uncertain.
