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 lukulae is a freshwater cyprinid native to the Congo River basin. It is used as a food source. This species has never been reported as introduced or established outside of its native range. L. lukulae has a low climate match with the contiguous U.S. 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.
