  • The Douglas Islands are two small islands 22 kilometres (12 nmi) northwest of Cape Daly, and 6 kilometres (3 nmi) north of Andersen Island, as well as 7 kilometres (4 nmi) north-east of Child Rocks, which are both part of the Robinson Group.. They were discovered by the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition under Mawson, 1929–31, and named for Vice-Admiral Percy Douglas, then Hydrographer of the Royal Navy. The islands were first sighted during an aircraft flight from the Discovery on Dec. 3 1, 1929, and reported to lie in about 66°40′S 64°30′E / 66.667°S 64.500°E, but after the 1931 voyage they were placed at 67°20′S 63°32′E / 67.333°S 63.533°E. In 1956, an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions sledge party led by was unable to find them in this position, but found two uncharted islands farther south to which the name has now been applied.

  • Die Douglas-Inseln sind zwei kleine Inseln vor der Mawson-Küste des ostantarktischen Mac-Robertson-Lands. Sie liegen 19 km nordwestlich des Kap Daly. Teilnehmer der British Australian and New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition (1929–1931) unter der Leitung des australischen Polarforschers Douglas Mawson entdeckten und benannten sie. Namensgeber ist (1876–1939), Hydrograph der Royal Navy und späterer Vorsitzender der Kommission zur British Graham Land Expedition (1934–1937) unter der Leitung des australischen Polarforschers John Rymill. Anhand von Luftaufnahmen wurden die Inseln zunächst bei 66° 40′ S, 64° 30′ O verortet, ab 1931 bei 67° 20′ S, 63° 32′ O. Eine Schlittenmannschaft um den deutsch-australischen Geologen Peter Wolfgang Israel Crohn (1925–2015) konnte 1956 im Rahmen der Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions in keiner der genannten Positionen die Inseln identifizieren und übertrug die Benennung auf die hier beschriebenen Inseln.
