- Leo Minor (Wikipedia)
Leo Minor is a small and faint constellation in the northern celestial hemisphere. Its name is Latin for “the smaller lion”, in contrast to Leo, the larger lion. It lies between the larger and more recognizable Ursa Major to the north and Leo to the south. Leo Minor was not regarded as a separate constellation by classical astronomers; it was designated by Johannes Hevelius in 1687.
