Labes (plural:labes) is aLatin word used byexogeologists to refer to chaotic regions, featuring ridges and steep valleys, in theValles Marineris region ofMars. Labes are named after the nearestclassical albedo feature.
This is a list of all named labes.Planetocentric coordinates are given as planetocentric latitude with east longitude.[1]
