Ecological Risk Screening Summary - Labeo indramontri (a carp, 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.

Labeo indramontri is a freshwater cyprinid native to Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam. This species has a low climate match with the contiguous U.S. Because of the lack of georeferenced occurrences on which to base the climate matching source locations, the climate match may be underestimated. There is little information available about this species, and there have been no documented introductions of this species outside of its native range. Further information is needed to adequately assess the risk this species poses to the contiguous U.S., so the certainty of this assessment is low. The overall risk assessment category is Uncertain.
