Named after Maurolico, Francesco Maurolycus - Italian mathematician (1494-1575).

Maurolycus is one of the more prominent lunar craters in the southern highland region that is covered in overlapping crater impacts. It is joined at the southeast rim by the smaller crater Barocius. Due west lie the overlapping pair of Stöfler and Faraday. To the northeast is the faint crater Buch, and further to the north lies Gemma Frisius. (wikipedia entry)
