The Wikitōria Bank ( English ) is a bank in the Antarctic Ross Sea . It lies roughly on the geographical latitude of the Mackay Glacier off the Scott coast of the East Antarctic Victoria Land .

New Zealand scientists named it in the Maori spelling for "Victoria" and thus based on the naming of Victoria Land after the British monarch Victoria (1819-1901).
