Lunar #69: Pytheas craterlets
In Wood's list #69 is named "Copernicus secondary craters", but as significance is stated "rays and craterlets near Pytheas" (2004a, 2012a). His notes (Hardwick 2013a) speak only of craterlets of 3 km diameter around Pytheas and in the area between Pytheas and Montes Carpatus, which is the mountain range north of Copernicus.
