Agatharchides is alunar impact crater located at the southern edge ofOceanus Procellarum, in the region between theMare Humorum andMare Nubium. To the east-southeast is the craterBullialdus, and to the south-southwest liesLoewy. It is named after theGreek geographer Agatharchides.^[1]

The interior of the crater has been inundated bylava in the past, resurfacing the floor. The damaged outer wall varies considerably in height, ranging from level with the surface to rising as high as 1.5 km. The most intact portions of the wall are along the east and the west-southwest, while the rim is nearly non-existent to the north and heavily damaged to the south. A small craterlet lies along the western rim. The interior floor is marked only by a few tiny craterlets.
