Ecological Risk Screening Summary - Cyprinus daliensis (a carp, no common name) - 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. This additional information will help inform decisions on where, when, and how the species may be used to minimize risks of them becoming invasive.

There were no records of introduction found, and it is not found in trade. The climate match is low. There were small areas of medium match in Florida, Texas, and Arizona. The certainty of assessment is low. The overall risk assessment category is Uncertain.
