Distribution of named craters in the Solar System as of 2017.[1][2][3][4][a]

This is a list of craters on Venus, named by the International Astronomical Union's (IAU) Working Group for Planetary System Nomenclature. All craters on Venus are named after famous women or female first names.[1][5] (For features on Venus other than craters see, list of montes on Venus and List of coronae on Venus.[6])

  1. ^ a b The total number of named craters also includes names that have been dropped or not yet approved by IAU's Working Group for Planetary System Nomenclature (WGPSN)
  2. ^ The IAU cites Norma Olin Ireland's Index to the Women of the World as their source for the name "Anicia" as that of an ancient Greek poet; she gives it as an alternative name for Anyte of Tegea. Kate Campbell Hurd-Mead calls Anyte a physician on the basis of a story in Pausanias which tells of her curing a blind man after a visit from the god Asclepius.
  3. ^ Heidi Julia Bender was the author and illustrator of Cathy, Please Don't Move. Born in 1979, she lived in University Park, Maryland. (Heidi Bender, Cathy, Please Don't Move, Make a Wish Foundation, Winchester, Virginia (1989), p. 21 ). She died in 1991 of an inoperable tumor in her brain stem (Heidi Julia Bender (Obituary), The Washington Post, April 2, 1991).
