Mount Mervyn (70°31′S 65°13′E / 70.517°S 65.217°E / -70.517; 65.217) is a very sharp peak standing south of the main body of the Porthos Range in the Prince Charles Mountains of Antarctica, about 6 nautical miles (11 km) south of Mount Kirkby. It was sighted in December 1956 by an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions southern party led by W.G. Bewsher, and named for Mervyn Christensen, a weather observer at Mawson Station in 1956.[1][2]
