An archipelago on the Pacific coast south of Chiloe Island in southern Chile, South America, with a rugged coastline, just like the Taitao Peninsula to the south. Benjamin Island and Guaytecas Island are relatively large, but most of the islands are small, and there are more than 1,000 of them in total. Almost no vegetation grows there, and only a small number of indigenous people (chonos) live there (Alacaluf). The port of Melinka on Guaytecas Island is the only settlement.

南アメリカ,チリ南部のチロエ島の南にある太平洋岸の群島で,その南のタイタオ半島と同様,入りくんだ海岸線からなる。ベンハミン島,グアイテカス島などは比較的大きいが,大部分は小さく,その数は1000を超える。植物はほとんど生育せず,少数の原住民(チョノchono)が住むにすぎない(アラカルフ)。グアイテカス島のメリンカ港が唯一の集落である。【細野 昭雄】
