LO-IV-133H The field of view includes the IAU-named features Jehan, Ango, Rosa, Akis, Natasha, Catena Pierre and Rima Wan-Yu plus a portion of Rima Euler. It is unclear from the IAU dimension of 1 km, and the labeling on Topophotomap 39C2/S1 if the name "Rosa" is meant to apply just to the small crater at the tip of the arrow or includes the larger crater to its west.
