PLATE LXXII ANTAECTIC ICEBERGS. 



FIG. 1. From a photograph by R. W. SKELTON (S. 107, 5" x 4" plate), Feb. 1904 ; 

 taken on the homeward voyage off South Victoria Land. 



FIG. 2 (Map A). From a photograph by R. W. SKELTON (Sk. 46, ^-plate) ; taken 

 outside Robertson Bay, Jan. 9, 1902. 



In Figure 1 is exemplified a tabular iceberg of some considerable size, with 

 water-worn caves. How typical this form is, may be judged by the second 

 picture, in which eight or ten bergs are seen in the distance, all of a similar shape 

 and size, and quite characteristic of the whole Antarctic region.
