Because Isabel's location is immediately north-northeast of Diophantus, all orbital Apollo photos of Isabel should be online in the LPI's list of Diophantus. However, this list needs further exploration and investigation because not all of the mentioned frames show the Diophantus-Isabel area! - DannyCaes Jun 30, 2012

Description

Isabel is a somewhat irregularly shaped crater that has received a name only by virtue of its having been labeled on a Topophotomap, and the subsequent adoption of those names by the IAU.
