Barocius is an ancient lunar impact crater that is located in the rugged southern highlands of the Moon. It lies just to the southeast of the large Maurolycus crater. To the southwest of Barocius is Clairaut crater, and to the south-southeast lies the Breislak crater. The rim of Barocius has been worn and eroded by countless subsequent impacts. Of these the most notable is 'Barocius B' which lies across the northeast rim, and intrudes into 'Barocius C'. There is a remnant of a crater 'Barocius W' that lies just inside the southwest interior wall. On the interior floor is a low central peak offset to the north of the floor mid-point. |
