Broka Island is a rocky island, 7.4 kilometres (4 nmi) long and rising to 140 metres (460 ft), with a prominent cove indenting the north side, situated 3.7 kilometres (2 nmi) north of Law Promontory and 1.9 kilometres (1 nmi) west of Havstein Island. It was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from aerial photographs taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37. They applied the name Broka because the outline of the island resembles that of a pair of trousers.
The Canopus Rocks are two small, low rocks lying 2 kilometres (1 nmi) northwest of Canopus Island, 2 kilometres (1 nmi) east of Nella Rock and the Sawert Rocks, and 1.9 kilometres (1 nmi) southeast of Hansen Rocks in the eastern part of Holme Bay, Mac. Robertson Land. They were plotted from photos taken from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions aircraft in 1958, and named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia after Canopus Island.

Johnson Island is an ice-covered island, about 17 kilometres (9 nmi) long and 9 kilometres (5 nmi) wide, lying within the Abbot Ice Shelf, Antarctica, about 26 kilometres (14 nmi) southeast of Dustin Island. The feature was observed and roughly positioned as an "ice rise" by parties from the USS Glacier (AGB-4) in February 1961.

Francis, a FIDS surveyor.
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.
Thode Island is a small ice-covered island situated in the Sulzberger Ice Shelf, located 1.9 kilometres (1 nmi) northwest of Benton Island and 9.3 kilometres (5 nmi) east of Przybyszewski Island in the Marshall Archipelago. The island was first mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1959-65. Named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for George C.
