The only occurrence of Neascus brevicaudatus in the Great Lakes has been from the introduced Eurasian ruffe (Gymnocephalus cernua) at 5% prevalence with very light (<1 parasite/host) infections. Due to the slow rate of population growth and expansion of N. brevicaudatus, its impacts in the Great Lakes are believed to be negligible.
