The Foreign-Office in London, in statements on Feb. 7 and Feb. 13, announced that Argentina and Chile had rejected British protests, earlier presented in Buenos Aires and Santiago, against the action of those countries in establishing bases in British Antarctic territories. The announcement of Feb. 7 stated that on Dec. 7, 1947, the British Ambassador in Buenos Aires, Sir Reginald Leeper, had presented a Note expressing British "anxiety" at the activities in the Antarctic of an Argentine naval expedition which had visited part of the Falkland Islands Dependencies, including Graham Land, the South Shetlands, and the South Orkneys, and had landed at various points in British territory; that a request had been made for Argentine nationals to evacuate bases established on Deception Island and Gamma Island, in the South Shetlands; that H.M. Government had proposed that the Argentine should submit her claim to Antarctic sovereignty to the International Court of Justice for adjudication; and that on Dec. 23, 1947, a second British Note had been presented expressing surprise at continued violations of British territory and territorial waters by Argentine vessels in the Antarctic.

    Isla, Zárate, and Vilas Across the Andes at the End of the World Federico I. Isla1*, Marcelo Zárate2, and Federico E. Vilas3 1CONICET, University of Mar del Plata, Argentina 2CONICET, University of La Pampa, Argentina 3University of Vigo, Spain In 1985, six coastal geologists (Silvia Lendaro, Gustavo González Bonorino, Jorge Fasano - all from the National Research Council of Argentina, and the authors) crossed the Andes Cordillera at the Eastern extreme of the Isla Grande of Argentina’s Tierra del Fuego (Peninsula Mitre). Departing by truck from Ushuaia, Argentina, which lies along the Beagle Channel, we arrived at San Pablo Cape on the Atlantic coast of the island (Figure 1). A helicopter carried us in groups to Valentín Bay, an ancient fjord facing south and very close to the Le Maire Strait. We stayed at a research campsite where archaeologists were digging old human occupations sites (Figure 2), located very close to a Nothofagus forest (barren) that is impacted by strong southerly winds. The six geologists (with two more companions) then prepared to walk across the Andes over three days to reach a former seal factory on the northern Atlantic coastline. Previously the helicopter had transferred food to both the Atlantic seal factory and to an intermediate location in Buen Suceso Bay (originally named Bay of the Good Success), in front of Staten Island. The main purpose of the excursion was to make an inventory of the natural resources of the region, and to describe the dynamics of the different bays along the Le Maire Strait (Isla, 1994). Figure 1.

The eight species involved are the following: European hare (Lepus europaeus), European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), wild boar (Sus scrofa), and red deer (Cervus elaphus) were all introduced from Europe (Austria, France, Germany, and Spain) to either or both Chilean and Argentine Patagonia. American beaver (Castor canadensis) and muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus) were introduced from Canada to Argentine Tierra del Fuego Island (shared with Chile). The American mink (Mustela vison) apparently was brought from the United States of America to both Chilean and Argentine Patagonia, independently. The native grey fox (Pseudalopex griseus) was introduced from Chilean to Argentine Tierra del Fuego.
