Italy’s volcano tally has risen to 29 following the discovery by scientists of a “new” volcano in the Tyrrhenian Sea off Calabria.

The volcano, which has yet to be named, last erupted about 670,000 years ago and gives volcanologists no cause for concern, reports ANSA.

The volcano is around 15 kilometres [9 miles] long and its summit lies around 120 metres [393.6 feet] below the sea surface. It was found on the same fault that caused the Calabrian earthquake of 1905, the first major earthquake of the twentieth century.

Nine of Italy’s volcanoes, including Stromboli, Etna and Vesuvius, are active and in March volcanologists expressed concern about a possible eruption of the Marsili undersea volcano, which could cause a tsunami.

Can you think of a name for the “new” volcano?
