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.
Green Labeo (Labeo fisheri) is a cyprinid fish species endemic to the mid to upper reaches of the Mahaweli River basin in Sri Lanka and Tamiraparani River in South Tamil Nadu, peninsular India. The history of invasiveness is uncertain, as it has not been reported as introduced or established outside of its native range. The climate match analysis resulted in a low match for the contiguous United States. The certainty of this assessment is low. The overall risk assessment category is uncertain.
