The Magnitologov Strait ( English ; Russian Пролив Магнитологов Proliw Magnitologow , German ' Magnetologen -Strasse' ) is a strait off the Knox coast of the East Antarctic Wilkesland . It runs between the Aviatorov Peninsula and Fuller Island in the offshore Highjump Archipelago .

Scientists on a Soviet Antarctic expedition mapped and named it in 1956. The Antarctic Names Committee of Australia transcribed the Russian name in 1992 in a transcribed partial translation into English.
