The Golomyanka (lit. fat fish) is a name given to two species of bullhead gobies endemic to Lake Baikal in Russia. They are the principle ecological competitor to the omul, and represent a primary food source for the Nerpa seal. They are easily identifiable, and are large enough (at 15-20 centimeters) to be easily seen. Golomyanka are unusual for their habit of moving throughout the entire water column of Lake Baikal without much regard for changes in pressure, although they can exist only within a very narrow range of temperatures and generally tend to find their ecological niche at 700-1600 feet. They are also known for rapidly decomposing in sunlight, leaving behind fat, oil, and bones.
