Sosigenes is a lunar impact crater on the west edge of Mare Tranquillitatis. It lies to the east of the large walled plain Julius Caesar. The crater rim has a high albedo making it relatively bright. It has a small central rise at the midpoint of the floor.To the east on the mare is a formation of parallel rilles designated the Rimae Sosignes. These follow a course to the north and have a length of about 150 kilometers. The small bowl-shaped crater Sosignes A lies across one of these rilles.
