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.
Stenolicmus sarmientoi is a small freshwater catfish native to the upper Apere River basin in the Amazon River basin in South America. S. sarmientoi has a low climate match with the contiguous U.S. There is little information available on the biology of this species, and it has no documented history of introduction. Because of this, overall risk assessment category for this species is uncertain.
