It was mapped by the United States Antarctic Service (1939–41) and by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos (1959–65). It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for David H. Greegor, a biologist with the United States Antarctic Research Program Marie Byrd Land Survey II, 1967–68.[1]
