Ecological Risk Screening Summary - Ituglanis mambai (a catfish, 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.

Ituglanis mambai is a trichomycterid catfish found within a single subterranean stream in Brazil. There have been no reports of this fish outside of its native range. As with other trichomycterids, I. mambai is classified as a prohibited species in the state of Florida. Due to a low climate match and absence of introduction history, the overall risk posed by I. mambai is uncertain.
