The Chaac-Camaxtli region is a volcanic region on Jupiter's moon Io, located from approximately 5 to 20°N and 130 to 160°W in its anti-Jovian hemisphere. It consists mainly of the hummocky bright plains that occupy the surface. This area is defined on the west by , and on the east by . At least 10 distinct volcanic centers are located in the region, making it a volcanically active region on Io's surface. Most of the volcanism here is expressed as paterae, which range in size from circular to elliptical. A patera is defined by the International Astronomical Union as "irregular or complex craters with scalloped edges." The largest volcanic structure here is the (105 km X 48 km). The paterae found in the Chaac-Camaxtli region are , , , , , , , , , and .

- La région Chaac-Camaxtli est une région volcanique sur Io, une lune de Jupiter, située entre environ 5 et 20° N et 130 à 160° W dans son hémisphère anti-jovien. Elle se compose principalement de plaines lumineuses bosselées qui occupent la surface. Cette zone est déliminée à l'ouest par (it) , et à l'est par (it). Au moins 10 centres volcaniques distincts sont situés dans la région, ce qui en fait une région volcaniquement active. La plupart du volcanisme ici est exprimé sous forme de paterae, dont la forme varie de circulaire à elliptique. Une patera est définie par l'Union astronomique internationale comme "des cratères irréguliers ou complexes avec des bords festonnés". Sa plus grande structure volcanique est Chaac Patera (105 km par 48 km). (fr)

Similar concepts happening on Io have been thought to have occurred in Earth's past, and some terrestrial analogues occur today. (en)
