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.
Kuria Labeo (Labeo gonius) is a prolific fish species with a native distribution that ranges across the northern tier of five South Asian countries. Artificial breeding for human consumption occurs. L. gonius is host to several parasites. 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. The certainty of this assessment is low. The overall risk assessment category is uncertain.
