The Fosdick Mountains are an east–west trending mountain range with marked serrate outlines, standing along the south side of Balchen Glacier at the head of Block Bay, in the Ford Ranges of Westarctica. The mountains were discovered by the Byrd Antarctic Expedition in 1929, and named by Richard E. Byrd for Raymond B. Fosdick, who became president of the Rockefeller Foundation.

-'''''[[Caloplaca saxicola]]''''' is a small bright orange crustose [[lichen]] that grows on rock all over the world, including [[Antarctica]]. It is commonly called rock firedot lichen, jewel lichen or rock jewel lichen. ''C. saxicola'' is one of the few [[lichen]]s found in [[Westarctica]], and is likely the most southerly plant life. The [[Caloplaca Hills]] were named for this lichen, which grows on the rocks there.
+The '''[[Fosdick Mountains]]''' are an east–west trending mountain range with marked serrate outlines, standing along the south side of [[Balchen Glacier]] at the head of [[Block Bay]], in the [[Ford Ranges]] of [[Westarctica]].
