Details:
On the upper image, Lacus Somniorum is marked by a vertical rill snaking downward towards its namesake crater G. Bond. The upper portion of the Rima G. Bond extends downwards from an unnamed rill which runs roughly west to east across the lacus. Another unnamed rille runs from above Posidonius towards the crater G. Bond, nearly parallel to the more northern unnamed rille.
Farther south, Rimae Romer runs northward across the Montes Taurus from crater Romer, the medium-sized crater to the right of center with a prominent central peak. Sections of the rimae angle upward, through a ruined crater east of Posidonius, and it appears to contact Rima G. Bond.
Good old Posidonius has multiple rilles and faults on its fractured floor. Adjacent to it, Rimae Chacornac crosses its namesake crater and angles downward nearly to le Monnier. Farther south the Rimae Littrow angles towards the northwest margin of crater Littrow. Finally, on the right lower image, Rima Cauchy angles in disjointed curves to the image margin.
