Ecological Risk Screening Summary - Ituglanis ramiroi (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 ramiroi is a South American trichomycterid catfish found only in São Bernardo Cave in Brazil. There have been no reports of I. ramiroi outside of its native range. Possession and trade of this species is prohibited in the state of Florida. Due to a low climate match and absence of introduction history, the overall risk posed by I. ramiroi is uncertain.
