Which moon crater is this?

Just before I shot Jupiter this morning I took an Avi of the moon. Unfortunately as Virtual Moon Atlas has crashed on my PC and I could not identify this crater nor on Rukl's Atlas of the Moon, so perhaps some one on IIS can!

Any ideas?

I'd hazard a guess that the large crater in the center is Biela, John, with Biela B to the right and Biela C to the left. With Rosenberg C closest at the bottom right, Rosenberg b lower center and Rosenberg A center below Biela.
