Ecological Risk Screening Summary - Labeo lineatus (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 lineatus is a freshwater cyprinid native to the Congo River basin. L. lineatus is used as a food fish. This species has never been reported as introduced or established outside of its native range. L. lineatus has a low climate match with the contiguous United States. Further information is needed to adequately assess the risk this species poses, so the certainty of this assessment is low. The overall risk assessment category is Uncertain.
