Riccioli's nomenclature
- Palus Nebularum (Marsh of Fogs); was Riccioli's name for the region at Aristillus, Theaetetus, and Cassini. The Hallwag moonmap is one of the modern maps which shows the name Palus Nebularum.
- Palus Nimborum (Marsh of Rain Clouds); was Riccioli's name for the region slightly southwest of Sinus Medii.
- Palus Solitatis, might have been the name of the low-albedo region near crater Andersson, at centre of the Mendel-Rydberg Basin. Unfortunately, it was not approved by the IAU. Long before all of this, it already received a name by Franz: Mare Parvum. See also page Luna Incognita.
