Trivial Islands (65°31′S 65°13′W) is a group of small islands lying 1.5 nautical miles (2.8 km) east of Lacuna Island and 7 nautical miles (13 km) north of Vieugue Island, in the Biscoe Islands. Mapped by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) from photos taken by Hunting Aerosurveys Ltd. in 1956-57. So named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) because these islands are small, dull and uninteresting.
