Name ID: 1074
Place ID: 5023
One of the Haswell Islands, about 1.5 km south of Haswell Island. The Western Base Party of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition (1911-14) plotted this island and another just north of it as one island and called it Fulmar Island because of the colony of Southern Fulmars on it. The Soviet Antarctic Expedition has shown that there are two islands and has applied the name Fulmar to the southernmost. |
