Centropleura Spur (71°17′S 163°11′E / 71.283°S 163.183°E / -71.283; 163.183) is the southwest spur of a small massif enclosing a cirque, located at the head of Carryer Glacier, 3 nautical miles (6 km) northeast of Mount Jamroga, in the Bowers Mountains, a major mountain range lying within Victoria Land, Antarctica. The spur includes a sedimentary sequence which contains the Middle Cambrian fossil, Centropleura, discovered by scientific parties to this area, 1974–75 and 1981–82. The geographical feature lies situated on the Pennell Coast, a portion of Antarctica lying between Cape Williams and Cape Adare.[1][2]
