Little Razorback , also called Little Razorback Island , is the easternmost and smallest of the Dellbridge Islands in Antarctica and is located in Erebus Bay to the west of Ross Island . It was first discovered during the Discovery Expedition led by Robert Falcon Scott . Since the island is smaller, but just as the island Big Razorback in appearance to a whale ( English razorback = fin whale ) is similar, the island was Little Razorback named.
