Mount Alexandra (78°0′S 163°50′E) is a mountain rising to 1,274 metres (4,180 ft) at the south side of the head of Garwood Glacier in the Denton Hills, Scott Coast. It was named by the New Zealand Geographic Board after Jane Alexandra (1829–92), an early botanist with an interest in lower plants; born in Calcutta, she came to New Zealand in 1862.
