Ius Chasma in mosaic of THEMIS infrared images, with parts of Tithonium, Candor and Melas chasmata visible at upper left and right, extreme upper right, and extreme lower right, respectively. Side canyons created by sapping are prominent in the central region. Near the right end are a series of massive landslide deposits, the Ius Labes. Calydon Fossa, a smaller parallel chasm, runs south of Ius Chasma at left.
