The phase of the moon that follows the waning gibbous phase is the third quarter phase. During this phase, half of the moon is illuminated, and it appears as a half-moon. The third quarter occurs roughly a week after the full moon and signifies the moon's transition towards the new moon phase.
One is Crescent (waxing), the other is Crescent (waning).
The moon appears as a waxing (growing) crescent for about a week, between the moments of New Moon and First Quarter.

The phase that follows the new moon phase when it appears as a small outer portion of a circle is the waxing crescent phase. This phase occurs as the illuminated portion of the Moon gradually increases in size.
The crescent phase that precedes the new moon phase is called the waxing crescent, where the illuminated portion of the moon is increasing. The crescent phase that follows the new moon phase is called the waning crescent, where the illuminated portion of the moon is decreasing.
Waxing crescent is the phase that follows the new moon when it appears as a small outer portion of a circle.

The moon phase that follows the new moon is the waxing crescent phase. During this phase, a small sliver of the moon is illuminated on the right side, signaling the beginning of the moon's waxing or growing phase as it moves towards a full moon.
The phase of the moon that follows the waning gibbous phase is the third quarter phase. During this phase, half of the moon is illuminated, and it appears as a half-moon. The third quarter occurs roughly a week after the full moon and signifies the moon's transition towards the new moon phase.

3/4 of the moon
The moon phase that occurs 21-22 days after a new moon is the waning gibbous phase. During this phase, more than half of the moon's surface is illuminated, but it is decreasing in brightness as it approaches the last quarter phase. The waning gibbous follows the full moon, which occurs approximately 14-15 days after the new moon.
