Cherax boschmai is a New Guinea crayfish known only from a single lake in Papua Province, Indonesia. C. boschmai has an overall low climate match to the contiguous United States and no history of introduction outside its native range. Further information is needed to understand the potential impacts of an introduction of C. boschmai into the United States. The overall risk assessment category is “uncertain”.
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.
