{wiki=Malpelo_Ridge}
Malpelo Ridge is an underwater mountain range located in the eastern Pacific Ocean, near the coast of Colombia. It is situated southwest of the Malpelo Island and is part of the larger structure known as the Nazca Plate. The ridge extends along a north-south orientation and is characterized by a series of volcanic and geological features. The Malpelo Ridge is geologically significant due to its association with tectonic activity and the interactions between the Nazca Plate and the South American Plate.
