Named Features

- Desertum Zin (J.Hewelcke's disallowed name for the northern half of Tycho's dark halo).
- Deslandres (see Chart 65).

- Luna 5 (?) (according to Wikipedia, the coordinates of the impact site of Luna 5 were firstly announced as 31° South/ 8° West, which is north of Hell; at the western part of Deslandres) (the original printed version of Antonin Rukl's atlas shows the location of Luna 5's impact craterlet southeast of Lansberg (Chart 42), while the most recent estimates show a location southwest of Copernicus, see Chart 31).

- Street (Van Langren's Wisilii) (on the original chart 64 printed in Rukl's Atlas of the Moon, a possible Concentric Crater (CC) is depicted on the floor of Street M (west-southwest of Street), which is a good target for telescopic photographers of the region south of Tycho!).- DannyCaes Jul 31, 2013

The strange case of GRANOLLACHS (Gauricus A)
Several Spanish moon-websites show the mysterious name GRANOLLACHS as some sort of extra to the list of new names of Hugh Percy Wilkins (see his legendary book THE MOON).
Why is this name not mentioned in the list of Wilkins? Could somebody shed some light upon this mystery of lunar nomenclature? The name Granollachs is not mentioned in E.A.Whitaker's book Mapping and Naming the Moon (the alphabetic list of new names from H.P.Wilkins).
