A group of scattered mountains and nunataks between Austreskorve Glacier and Vestreskorve Glacier in the Muhlig-Hofmann Mountains of Queen Maud Land. The name "Buddenbrock-Kette" was applied in the general area by the GerAE under Alfred Ritscher, 1938-39, for the director of the Atlantic division of the former German Lufthansa Corporation. The correlation of the name with this feature may be arbitrary but is recommended for the sake of international uniformity and historical continuity. |
