Ecological Risk Screening Summary - Pangasius rheophilus (a catfish, 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.

Adults can be found in upstream areas and have the ability to overcome barriers such as waterfalls via a jumping behavior. The history of invasiveness is no known nonnative population.
