Apollodorus is an impact crater on Mercury . Its unusual appearance, with radiating dark troughs, led to a nickname of "the Spider" by scientists before its official name was decided. Apollodorus is located near the center of Pantheon Fossae , which is a system of radial grabens situated in the inner part of the Caloris basin .
