Hodgkins Seamount is a seamount in the Kodiak-Bowie Seamount chain, located south of Pierce Seamount and north of Bowie Seamount. Hodgkins Seamount has apparently experienced two generically different episodes of volcanism, separated by about 12 million years ago. Like the rest of the Kodiak-Bowie seamounts, it was formed by the Bowie hotspot.
