WURZELBAUER.—­Another irregular walled-plain, about 50 miles in diameter, on the S.E. of Pitatus, with a very complex border, in connection with which, on the S.W., is a group of fine depressions, and on the S.E. a large crater.  There is much detail on the very uneven floor.

MILLER.—­One of a group of three moderately large ring-plains, of which Nasireddin is a member, near the central meridian in S. latitude 39 deg.  Its massive border rises nearly 11,000 feet above the floor, on which stands a central peak.  Miller is about 36 miles in diameter.

NASIREDDIN.—­A somewhat smaller ring-plain on the S. of the last, and of a very similar type.  It contains a central peak and several minor elevations.  Between its N.W. border and the S.W. flank of Miller is a smaller ring-plain of about half the size of Nasireddin, and on the S.E. a large enclosure named HUGGINS.

ORONTIUS.—­Huggins has encroached on the W. side of this irregular ring-plain and overlaps it.  It is of considerable size.  The floor includes much detail and a prominent crater.

SASSERIDES.—­A formation of irregular shape, with very lofty walls, situated amid the confusion of ring-plains, craters, crater-pits, &c., in the region N. of Tycho, some of which are fully as deserving of a distinct name.

HEINSIUS.—­A very curious formation on the N.E. of Tycho:  a fine telescopic object under oblique illumination.  It has an irregular but continuous border, except on the S., where two large ring-plains have encroached upon it, and a third, N. of a line joining their centres, occupies no inconsiderable portion of the floor.  Heinsius is nearly 50 miles across, and the border on the W., is nearly 9000 feet above the interior, which includes, at least, three small craters.  The walls of the intrusive ring-plains have craters on their summits; the more westerly has two on the W., and its companion, one on the S.W.  The ring-plain on the floor has a crater on its E. wall.  Schmidt shows a small crater between the ring-plains on the S. border.

SAUSSURE.—­A ring-plain W. of Tycho, 28 miles in diameter, with bright lofty terraced walls and a somewhat dark interior, on which there is a crater, W. of the centre, and some crater-pits.  There are several large depressions on the S.W. wall.  It is surrounded by formations which, though nearly as prominent as itself, have not, with the exception of Pictet on the E., and one on the N.W., called Huggins by Schmidt, received distinctive names.  The region W. of Saussure abounds in craterlets, some of which are of the minutest type.  One of the Tycho streaks is manifestly deflected from its course by this formation, and another is faintly traceable on the floor.

PICTET.—­A walled-plain of irregular shape, about 30 miles across, between Saussure and Tycho, with a border broken on the S. by a large conspicuous ring-plain, which is at least 10 miles in diameter, and, according to Schmidt, has a central mountain.  Schmidt draws the S.E. border of Pictet as broken by ridges extending on to the floor.  He also shows several craters and minor elevations thereon.
