Annotated image based on an interpretation of Rimae Riccioli of Lunar Orbiter IV-173-H3 in the on-line version of [/Bowker%20and%20Hughes Bowker and Hughes] and Byrne. The original IAU designation seems to have referred to a different rille, barely visible here, extending to the upper right from [/Riccioli Riccioli] G (the small shadowed crater at about 2 o'clock) towards [/Hevelius Hevelius]. The IAU nomenclature maps currently apply the name to the rilles within [/Riccioli Riccioli] itself and possibly to their extensions outside, although the original Rima Riccioli I now seems to be regarded as part of [/Rimae%20Hevelius Rimae Hevelius].

Additional Information
Nomenclature
- Named after the nearby crater ([/Riccioli Riccioli]).
- Page 324 of Neison's [/Neison%2C%201876 book] says (pre-[/IAU%20directions IAU directions]) that "In the NW wall of [/Riccioli Riccioli] is a short rille, seen by Lohrman (S202), and SW of it is a long rill ø (S201) extending from [/Hevelius Hevel] to [/Riccioli Riccioli]." It is also plotted on his map.
- Mary Blagg's [/Collated%20List Collated List] of 1913 adopted Neison's [/Riccioli Riccioli] Phi as Catalog Entry 1975 ("NW of [/Riccioli Riccioli]") and equated it with Schmidt's [/Lohrmann Lohrmann] r.
- The original IAU nomenclature of [/Blagg%20and%20M%C3%BCller Blagg and Müller] adopted this as Riccioli Ir, and it was the only named rille associated with [/Riccioli Riccioli].
- The [/System%20of%20Lunar%20Craters System of Lunar Craters] added a smaller Rima Riccioli II slightly to the north of this as indicated on [/Quad%20Maps Quad Maps] F4 and F5. This may be the "S202/Lohrmann r" referred to above.
- [/NASA%20SP-241 NASA SP-241] (not an official IAU publication), uses [/Lunar%20Orbiter Lunar Orbiter] photos to identify what appears to be the SLCs Rima Riccioli I' on pages 321 and 322. The index associates this feature with Entry 1975 in [/Blagg%20and%20M%C3%BCller Blagg and Müller]. [/NASA%20SP-241 SP-241] does not list or attempt to identify Riccioli II.
- Rimae Riccioli "as assigned to features on the lunar surface" was re(?)-approved by the IAU in 1985 with a notation that it is at 02°N/ 74°W (the current "official" position). No map reference or explanation is given as to whether this an addition to or replacement of the former name; nor is it mentioned whether the rilles inside the crater are included in the new approval.
- The size and position published in the [/IAU%20Planetary%20Gazetteer IAU Planetary Gazetteer] do not appear to conform to any of the prior definitions. In the new [/USGS%20Digital%20Atlas USGS Digital Atlas], Rimae Riccioli is printed over the center of [/Riccioli Riccioli] (see map links above), and the rille formerly known as Riccioli I is labeled as part of [/Rimae%20Hevelius Rimae Hevelius].
- It might be noted that the rille formerly designated Riccioli I, and possibly the one designated Riccioli II, are usually more prominent in Earth-based photos than the ones on the floor of [/Riccioli Riccioli].
