Description (see definition): A ridge of exposed dark rock trending WSW-ENE, located 1.5 mi N of Penguin Point in central Seymour Island. The descriptive name "Filo Negro" (black ridge) was applied to this feature in Argentine geological reports on the island in 1978. The approved name, jointly recommended by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) and UK Antarctic Place-names Committee (UK-APC) in 1991, avoids duplication with Black Ridge (q.v.), Deep Freeze Range.
