Eponym Nikolaj N. Evdokimov
Evdokimov is a lunar crater on the far side of the Moon. It lies to the east of Evershed crater, and west-southwest of Gadomski crater. This is a worn and eroded feature with a somewhat indistinct outer rim that is little more than a slight ridge in the surface. The rim is better formed along the western and eastern sides. A small crater with a relatively high albedo lies along the inner wall to the northeast, and is surrounded by a small, bright skirt of ejecta. The interior floor is nearly featureless, with only a few indistinct small crater rims marking the surface.

Satellite craters

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater mid-point that is closest to Evdokimov crater.
