Mohokya comprises a line of six craters extending over 20 km in a north-northeasterly direction from the northern end of the Katwe-Kikorongo volcanic field (No. 5). Little is known of the products of these craters, but they are probably similar to, and contemporaneous with, the Katwe-Kikorongo field.
