Introduction
The lower to mid-Pleistocene Tigilsky shield volcano (Ogorodov et al. 1972) appears to have a 2-km-wide crater just SE of the summit. An area on the W flank was previously listed as an Unnamed Holocene basaltic shield volcano. The morphology as observed in satellite imagery suggests that the "shield" is simply an erosional feature along a volcanic ridge of the larger edifice.---
