Gaussberg
Gaussberg (or Schwarzen Berg, Mount Gauss) is a extinct volcanic cone in East Antarctica fronting on Davis Sea immediately west of Posadowsky Glacier. It is ice-free and conical in nature, having formed subglacially about 55,000 years ago. The current edifice is thought to be the remains of a once-larger mountain that has been reduced by glacial and subaerial erosion. The volcano has produced lamproite magmas, and is the youngest volcano to have produced such magmas on Earth.
Molokini
Molokini is a crescent-shaped, partially submerged volcanic crater which forms a small, uninhabited islet located in ʻAlalākeiki Channel between the islands of Maui and Kahoolawe, within Maui County in Hawaii. It is the remains of one of the seven Pleistocene epoch volcanoes that formed the prehistoric Maui Nui island, during the Quaternary Period of the Cenozoic Era.

Imun
Imun is a small dacitic and rhyolitic lava cone at 20 km (12,42 miles) south of Lake Toba and 6 km (3,72 miles) north of the town of Situmeang. Due to its closeness to the much larger caldera of Lake Toba, there is not much information about this small volcano.
