• According to T.W.Webb, the so-called Lunar City which was discovered by Franz von Paula Gruithuisen, would have been known as Schroter (thus named by Gruithuisen himself), but, that name was transferred by Beer and Madler, who have given it to the crater which is nowadays officially known as Schroter.
