Salvelinus tolmachoffi, also known as Yessey lake charr, is a freshwater species of fish in the salmon family. It is endemic to Lake Yessey of the Khatanga river basin of the arctic Russia.[2] In 2007, the fish was listed as endangered by IUCN due to over-fishing and poor management of the water body.[3]

Description

Yessey lake charr can grow to a recorded maximum length of 37.0 cm (14.6 inches).[4] The fish lives at or near the bottom of the lake.

The head and back of the fish are blue-black, while the sides of the body are dark-gray with a golden tint and the belly is pale yellow. There are numerous red spots on the sides of the body.[5][6] The species feed on gammarus, copepods, chironomid larvae, and fish.[7]

Yessey lake charr spawn in autumn, from the second half of October to December, in coastal areas with depths of 2.5 - 4 m.[8]
