In Greek mythology, Larissa was a daughter of Pelasgus?.


Larissa is the fifth of Neptune's known moons. It was discovered by [Harold Reitsema]? based on ground-based stellar occultation observations, and was photographed by [Voyager 2]? in 1989. Larissa is irregular (non-spherical) in shape and appears to be heavily cratered, with no sign of any geological modification. Little else is known about it.
