There is actually a slice of Antarctica, just to the west of the
Ross Sea, named Adelie Land, and this is the origin of the penguin's name. This slice of Antarctica is claimed by the French, but the Antarctic Treaty annuls all such claims. Dumont D'Urville named it after his wife. The French station there is named after the explorer.
Adelie penguins are a small penguin that live in a populous colony, and are about 450 - 500 mm tall. They construct a nest from stones to keep the eggs elevated from the water melt in the spring. They catch fish and krill at sea.
