Hydrobiological studies No direct hydrobiological investigations have been carried out in this lake. According to earlier studies (Yakovlev et al., 1991), the lakes near the “Pechenganikel” smelter have low biodiversity levels. The dominant species are chironomids, water-bugs and beetles. Dwarf burbot (Lota lota) should most probably also be present. 1.11. LAKE PIKKU-HEYNJAJARVI Lake Pikku-Heynjajarvi (watershed of the river Pechenga) is located 15 km to the east of the town of Zapolyarny and 17 km to the south of the settlement of Pechenga. It is a small (area of the lake 0.28 km2), shallow-water (maximum depth 11 m), oval lake, elongated from the east to the west, and of glacial ori gin. The maximum length is 900 m and maximum width 420 m. The point of maximum depth (11 m) is located in the central part of the lake. According to the landscape type, the watershed belongs to the forest-tundra zone with heights of up to 328.0 m (Kjalojarvi fell). The lake shores are high and rocky.
