<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt; On the first web site, you can see four islands. By clicking on them, <br/>
&gt; their names appear. The biggest one is Filomena. West of it, from <br/>
&gt; north to south: Filomena Chica, Palma Chica, De la Palma o Bassi.<br/>
 </span></blockquote>Many thanks for this - the maps on the Uruguayan site kept crashing<br/>
Java on my machine, but with the image you posted and the above<br/>
dissertation, I get the picture!<br/>
If they&#39;re inhabited as you say, then they must be vaguely permanent.<br/>
I wonder how wide the channels between the islands are and if they<br/>
ever dry out (especially the narrow crosswise streams between the<br/>
western three). That would potentially convert four exclaves to one,<br/>
since the treaty stipulates that all the water is Argentinian and all<br/>
the land is Uruguayan.<br/>

PS: Re haplology - the word strictly applies to the *spoken* error.<br/>
&quot;Haplography&quot; is what happens in print. (But then we&#39;d have missed out<br/>
on your fine self-referential coining, &quot;haplogy&quot;!)</div>
