Ecological Risk Screening Summary - Labeo reidi (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 reidi is a species of carp native to the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It is reported to be harvested for human consumption, but very little other information is available on the species. L. reidi has not been reported as introduced or established outside its native range. Certainty of assessment is low. Climate match to the contiguous United States is low. Without a history of introduction and information about impacts of introduction, overall risk posed by L. reidi is uncertain.
