These arms are explained as follows: The entire upper half is occupied by the Argentine flag, a fact that shows us that the lower Atlantic section is obviously under Argentine jurisdiction (''sic''). In this lower section, two silver dolphins appear, submerged and aggressive, with their heads down, occupying the upper external and internal corners of the center and right and left corners of the tip, while their bodies, partly approximate, ascend to finish off in its caudal fins without reaching the surface of the sea, leaving enough space between them, occupied by a silver Roman anchor. In addition, three stars in gold appear, with five points each, aesthetically placed, representing the adjacent archipelagos: Georgias, Sandwich and Órcadas del Sur. Outside of the field, a wreath of laurel (right) and olive (left), tied by a ribbon bow with the colors of the Fatherland. | These arms are explained as follows: The entire upper half is occupied by the Argentine flag, a fact that shows us that the lower Atlantic section is obviously under Argentine jurisdiction (''sic'').
