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.
Tilapia pra is a benthopelagic cichlid native to river systems in southwestern Ghana and southeastern Côte d'Ivoire. The species has not been reported as introduced outside of this area. Because T. pra has no history of invasiveness, it is currently impossible to know what impacts T. pra might have if introduced to the U.S. Climate match to the contiguous U.S. is low. Overall risk of this species is uncertain.
