The United States Miscellaneous Caribbean Islands is an obsolete collective term for the territories currently or formerly controlled by the United States in the Caribbean Sea. Most of the islands were acquired through claims made via the Guano Islands Act: *Navassa Island (U.S. unincorporated territory, claimed by Haiti) *Serranilla Bank (occupied by Colombia, claimed by the U.S., Nicaragua, Honduras and, until 1994, Jamaica) *Bajo Nuevo Bank (claimed by the U.S., Colombia, Jamaica and Nicaragua) *Quita Sueño Bank (claim abandoned on September 17, 1981, occupied by Colombia) *Serrana Bank (ceded to Colombia on September 17, 1981) *Roncador Bank (ceded to Colombia on September 17, 1981) *Corn Islands (returned to Nicaragua on April 25, 1971) *Swan Islands (ceded to Honduras on September 1, 1972) The islands were given the FIPS country code of BQ before 1974. With the transfer of sovereignty of most of the islands, the FIPS country code of BQ now represents only Navassa Island, still controlled by the U.S. ==See also==
