LO-V-186M Prinz is the large semi-circular crater in the center. On Prinz’s outer rim (at 1 o’clock) is the 2-km crater Vera (which seems to lie at the head of a rille); and, continuing on the same line, 4-km Ivan between two other rilles near the top. All the rilles in this view are probably regarded as part of the system known as Rimae Prinz, with the exception of the ones in the upper left corner -- they are part of the neighboring Rimae Aristarchus. Some of the hills on the right, and possibly the one directly north of Prinz are considered to be part of Montes Harbinger.
