White Island is a 24-kilometre-long (13 nmi) and 9-kilometre-wide (5 nmi) ice-covered island in Enderby Land, Antarctica. 15-kilometre-wide (8 nmi) Styles Strait separates it from Sakellari Peninsula. Discovered and called Hvitøya by Hjalmar Riiser-Larsen in January 1930, its existence was considered doubtful for a number of years but was confirmed by the Soviet expedition in the Lena in March 1957, and by ANARE led by D.F. Styles in the Thala Dan in February 1960.

Kirkby Shoal is a small shoal area with depths of less than 18 metres (59 ft) extending about 140 metres (459 ft) westwards and SSW, about 3.4 kilometres (2.1 mi) from the summit of Shirley Island, Windmill Islands, and 0.24 kilometres (0.15 mi) NW of Stonehocker Point, Clark Peninsula.
Kidson Island is an island 1 kilometre (0.5 nmi) long, lying 28 kilometres (15 nmi) north-northeast of Byrd Head, Antarctica. It was discovered in February 1931 by the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition under Mawson, and named by him for Edward Kidson.

The islands, about 60 m (197 ft) above sea level, are separated by a narrow channel. Plotted from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) air photos taken in 1956 and visited by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) in February, 1961. Named by ANCA for F.P. McMahon, Supply Officer, Antarctic Division, Melbourne, and second-in-command of the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE), 1960-61.
Bandy Island is a small ice-covered island lying in Hull Bay, 3 kilometres (1.5 nmi) west of Lynch Point in coastal Marie Byrd Land. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and from U.S. Navy aerial photographs, 1962–67, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after Orville L. Bandy (1917–73), professor of geology at the University of California, Los Angeles, and a participant since 1961 in several United States Antarctic Research Program projects. In 1964 and 1966, respectively, he was chief scientist on cruises 7 and 17 of RV Anton Bruun, and took part in several cruises of USNS Eltanin.

Barratt, a weather observer at Davis Station in 1960.
Cleft Island is a small island to the north of the Bølingen Islands, lying 5 kilometres (2.5 nmi) southeast of Lichen Island in southern Prydz Bay. The island is split by a deep channel about 6 metres (20 ft) wide. The island was plotted from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and called Lorten by Norwegian cartographers. The feature was visited by an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions party from the Nella Dan in February 1966 and renamed with reference to the deep channel.
Demidov Island is a small island 9.3 kilometres (5 nmi) north of the mouth of Rayner Glacier and 17 kilometres (9 nmi) southwest of the Hydrographer Islands along the coast of Enderby Land. It appears that the island was mapped by both the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions and the Soviet expedition in 1957. It was named by the Soviet expedition for Lieutenant Dimitri Demidov of the Russian expedition of 1819–21 under Fabian Gottlieb von Bellingshausen.
Dint Island is a rocky island, 3 kilometres (1.5 nmi) long. Probably first seen from the air by the United States Antarctic Service, 1939–41, it was first mapped from air photos taken by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition, 1947–48, by D. Searle of the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1960. It was so named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee because a distinctive cirque makes a dent, or dint, on the south side of the island.
The Edwards Islands are a group of islands in the east side of Amundsen Bay, about 5 kilometres (2.5 nmi) southwest of Mount Oldfield in Enderby Land. They were plotted from air photos taken from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions aircraft in 1956, and were named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for T. Edwards, an assistant diesel mechanic at Wilkes Station in 1960.
The Hansen Rocks are a group of five small islands lying just north of Holme Bay and the coast of Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica, about 2 kilometres (1 nmi) northeast of the Sawert Rocks and Nella Rock, and about 2 kilometres (1 nmi) northwest of the Canopus Rocks. They were plotted from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) air photographs, and were named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for Captain B.T. Hansen, master of the Nella Dan for ANARE relief voyages in 1968, 1969, 1970 and 1972.
Harrop Island is a small island lying close to the coast and 6 kilometres (3 nmi) northwest of Felton Head, Enderby Land, Antarctica. It was plotted from air photos taken from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions aircraft in 1956, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for J.R. Harrop, a weather observer at Wilkes Station in 1960.
Heckmann Island is the largest island in the eastern part of the Thorfinn Islands, lying 13 kilometres (7 nmi) north of Byrd Head, Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37. It was remapped by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions and named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for B. Heckmann, chief officer on the Nella Dan in 1965.
Kitney Island is a small island 2 kilometres (1 nmi) east-northeast of the Smith Rocks, 2 kilometres (1 nmi) southwest of the Wiltshire Rocks, and 5 kilometres (2.5 nmi) northwest of the Paterson Islands, off the coast of Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. The Lars Christensen Expedition (1936) first mapped this island which, though left unnamed, was included in a small group named by them "Spjotoyskjera". It was remapped by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expedition (ANARE) in 1956, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for V.J. Kitney, a supervising technician (radio) at Mawson Station in 1968.
Kirton Island is a small coastal island of the Robinson Group, lying 6 kilometres (3 nmi) west of Cape Daly, Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica, and about 3 kilometres (1.5 nmi) south of Macklin Island. It was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for M. Kirton, a geophysicist at Mawson Station in 1959.
Macklin Island is a small island in the eastern part of the Robinson Group, about 3 kilometres (1.5 nmi) north of Kirton Island, and 6 kilometres (3 nmi) northwest of Cape Daly, Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. It was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and was named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for E.L. Macklin, a radio officer at Mawson Station in 1955 and 1959.
Kellas Islands are two small islands 1 kilometre (0.5 nmi) south of the Parallactic Islands in Holme Bay, Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. They were plotted from photos taken from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions aircraft in 1958 and 1959, and were named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for William Robert Anthony Kellas, a weather observer at Mawson Station in 1960.
Kellick Island is an island 1 kilometre (0.5 nmi) long, lying 2 kilometres (1 nmi) north-east of Round Point, off the north coast of King George Island in the South Shetland Islands of Antarctica. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1960 for Captain Kellick, Master of the British sealer Henry, who visited the South Shetland Islands in 1821–22.
Larsen Bank is a shoal with a least depth of 16 metres (52 ft) in the northern part of Newcomb Bay, Antarctica, located 1 kilometre (0.5 nmi) north of Kilby Island in the Windmill Islands.
Lichen Island is a small island lying 9 kilometres (5 nmi) north of the Bølingen Islands and 5 kilometres (2.5 nmi) north-west of Cleft Island in southern Prydz Bay, Antarctica. It was first visited by an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions party led by Phillip Law, on 5 February 1955, and named by him for the rich growth of lichens found there.
