Discontinued names

(Appearing, now, only on Krieger's and König's lunar maps. Although a few of the following names were used on early IAU maps, none of them currently are.)
 
  Note that most of these names were subdivisions of [/Montes%20Carpatus Montes Carpatus] and [/Montes%20Riphaeus Montes Riphaeus]. Two interesting photographs on page 164 of E. A. Whitaker's book (Figures 104, A and B) show J. N. Krieger's map of the Riphaeus region, with all the named subdivisions in it.
