Duclaux Point


Duclaux Point is a point extending into Bouquet Bay from the east side of Pasteur Peninsula, 3 nautical miles southeast of Cape Cockburn on Brabant Island in the Palmer Archipelago. It was first charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, and named by Jean-Baptiste Charcot for Pierre E. Duclaux, a French biochemist who was director of the Pasteur Institute in Paris in 1895.
