Anville is a relatively small, solitary lunar impact crater located in the north part of the Mare Fecunditatis. This is a circular, cup-shaped formation with a sharp edge and little appearance of wear. Some minor slumping has occurred in the eastern half of the interior wall.
This crater is named after French cartographer Jean-Baptiste d'Anville (1697-1782). It was designated Taruntius G prior to being assigned a name by the IAU in 1976. Taruntius itself lies to the north-northwest, at the edge of the mare.
