# Alectoria Island

Alectoria Island is a low, nearly ice-free island less than 2 kilometres (1 nmi) long. It lies in Prince Gustav Channel, about 1 kilometre (0.5 nmi) off the terminus of Aitkenhead Glacier, Trinity Peninsula, Antarctica. It was surveyed in 1945 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, who named it after the lichen Alectoria which was predominant on the island at the time.
