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.
Labeo dyocheilus is a cyprinid native to Asia. This species is used as a food fish. No introductions to the U.S. have been reported; one source reports that the presence of L. dyocheilus in Vietnam may be the result of an introduction. L. dyocheilus has a low climate match with the contiguous United States. Because of a lack of information from which to base an assessment of invasive potential, certainty of this assessment is low. The overall risk assessment category is Uncertain.
