Vlinder Guyot (also known as Alba Seamount) is a guyot in the Western Pacific Ocean. It rises to a depth of 1,500 metres (4,900 ft) and has a flat top covering an area of 40 by 50 kilometres (25 mi × 31 mi).
The Magellan Seamounts extend from to . They include: Govorov Guyot [7. 7]; 121 ± 2.8 to 98.5 ± 1.4 Ma [7]; Ioah Seamount (also known as Ioah Guyot, Ioan Seamount or Fedorov Seamount) . 8]; 87 million years old [8]; Pako Guyot. 9]; 92 million years old [9] but volcanics have been now dated in range 112 to 86 Ma and < 20 Ma in smaller volcanoes on the guyot.

A seamount is a large submarine landform that rises from the ocean floor without reaching the water surface (), and thus is not an island, islet, or cliff-rock.Seamounts are typically formed from extinct volcanoes that rise abruptly and are usually found rising from the seafloor to 1,000–4,000 m (3,300–13,100 ft) in height.
The Bear Seamount (left), a guyot in the northern Atlantic Ocean. In marine geology, a guyot (/ ˈ ɡ iː. oʊ, ɡ iː ˈ oʊ /), [1] [2] also called a tablemount, is an isolated underwater volcanic mountain with a flat top more than 200 m (660 ft) below the surface of the sea. [3] The diameters of these flat summits can exceed 10 km (6 mi). [3]

The guyot is part of the Magellan Seamounts. [8] The seamount was volcanically active during the Cretaceous-Paleogene [9] 91.3 million years ago [10] and may have formed on a hotspot together with Ioah Guyot and Vlinder Guyot; [11] a late phase of volcanism may have taken place in the Paleocene-Eocene.
