Jagar Islands
The Jagar Islands are a group of small islands lying immediately off Cape Boothby, Enderby Land, Antarctica. They were mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and named "Jagarane" (the hunters). The form Jagar Islands, recommended by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia, has been adopted.[1]
