The Mite Skerry is a small island off the Fallières coast of Graham Lands on the Antarctic Peninsula . It is located south of the entrance to Lystad Bay from Horseshoe Island .
The Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey named them between 1955 and 1957 based on the naming of the neighboring Mane Skerry . Both names are derived from a spelling error in the English "[with] might and main" (German "[with] all violence").
