(Restating the question as "What phase of the Moon follows 'waning gibbous'?)

The phase of the Moon which follows 'Waning Gibbous' is 'Last Quarter'. The Gibbous phases are the periods when the Moon is more than 50% illuminated. Waxing being the period when it is approaching Full, and Waning being the period after Full, but before 'Last Quarter'. See Wikipedia entry for "Lunar Phase"

After the roughly-7-days of Waning Gibbous Moon ends, the
roughly-7-days of Waning Crescent Moon begins. The exact
moment between them is the moment of Third Quarter Moon.


In the lunar cycle, the "third-quarter Moon" follows the "waning gibbous" phase.
