Haswell Islands [SEP] continent
Haswell Islands
The Haswell Islands are a group of rocky coastal islands lying off Mabus Point, Antarctica, and extending about seaward. They were charted by the Australasian Antarctic Expedition under Douglas Mawson (1911–14), who applied the name "Rookery Islands" because of a large emperor penguin rookery on Haswell Island, the largest and seaward island in the group. In 1955 the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia proposed that the name Haswell be extended to the entire group.
