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.
Stegophilus panzeri is a small freshwater catfish native to the Lower Amazon River basin in South America. S. panzeri has a low climate match with the U.S. There is very little information available on this species, and it has no documented history of introduction so potential impacts of introduction remain unknown. Because of this, overall risk assessment category for this species is uncertain.
