Deutsch: Die Pseudokrater von /Skútustaðir gehören zum Vulkansystem der Heiðarsporðar im Norden Islands beim und im See Mývatn. Sie entstanden in phreatomagmatischen Explosionen als vor ca. 2000 Jahren Lava über Feuchtgebiete bzw. Teile des damaligen Sees strömte.
English: The crater group Rootless cones of Skútustaðir (also called pseudocraters) is to be found to the eastern side of and in the form of islands in the lake Mývatn in the north of Iceland. The craters are not connected to volcanic pipes or dikes, but originate from explosions when lava from the volcanic system of Heiðarsporðar rann over swamps around 2000 BP.
Français : Les Skútustaðagígar, toponyme islandais signifiant littéralement en français « cratères de Skútustaðir », sont un ensemble de pseudo-cratères d'Islande situés dans le Nord du pays, sur la rive méridionale du Mývatn. Ils sont nés lorsqu'une coulée de lave, émise par des fissures du système volcanique du Heiðarsporðar il y a 2000 ans à peu près, est entrée en contact avec les eaux du lac, créant des explosions qui ont édifié ces cratères volcaniques dépourvus de racine.
Íslenska: Skútustaðagígarnir eru gervigígar sem finnst hjá Skútustöðum við Mývatn. Þeir urðu til í sprengingum fyrir rúmlega 2 þúsund árum, þegar Laxárhraunið rann yfir mýrar og vatnið.
