Wunda is a large ring of bright material on the surface of Uranus's moon Umbriel. It is a crater of some kind, but the reason for its brightness, which stands out from the very dark composition of the moon as a whole, is unknown.
It is named after Wunda, a dark spirit of Australian aboriginal mythology.
