A small island to the north of the Bølingen Islands in the southern part of the Prydz Bay, about 5 km ESE of Lichen Island. The island is split by a deep channel about six metres wide. The island was plotted from air photographs taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition (1936) and called Lørten by Norwegian cartographers. The first landing was made on the island by an ANARE party from the MV Nella Dan led by Phillip Law on 18 February 1966.
