LOIV-054-H3
In this Lunar Orbiter IV image there's not much to see of the system of rilles on the floor of Cleomedes.
The close-up of Cleomedes in the online LROC Act-React Quick Map however shows several connected rilles like branches from a tree, or lightning strokes, on the eastern part of the crater's floor. The main section of this system of rilles was once known as Rima Cleomedes I.

Nomenclature
Within crater [/Cleomedes Cleomedes] (on its floor).
The most pronounced part of the system of rilles on the floor of Cleomedes is called Rima Cleomedes I on Charts 22 and 33 in the Times Atlas of the Moon (1969).
On Chart A3 of the SLC (System of Lunar Craters) it (Rima Cleomedes I) is depicted as a straight line running from the eastern part of Cleomedes's rim toward Cleomedes E in Cleomedes itself (no traces of the other members of the Rimae Cleomedes system).
