Although Tiselius is not mentioned in the LPI's Apollo-related searchpage, it WAS indeed depicted on several orbital Apollo photographs!
Apollo 16's vertical Fairchild mapping/metric frame AS16-M-0018 in magazine REV 4 is one of four exquisite close up photographs of Tiselius and its curious central peak (a cluster of somewhat arc-shaped flat hills with a peninsula-like look).
