Bruchsalia (minor planet designation: 455 Bruchsalia) is a main-belt asteroid. It was discovered by Max Wolf and Friedrich Karl Arnold Schwassmann on May 22, 1900. Its provisional name was 1900 FG.
Echo is a quite large main-belt asteroid. It was discovered by James Ferguson of the United States Naval Observatory in Washington D.C., on September 14, 1860. It was his third and final asteroid discovery. It is named after Echo, a nymph in Greek mythology. James Ferguson had initially named it "Titania", not realizing that name was already used for a satellite of Uranus.
Aethra is a metallic asteroid and Mars-crosser on an eccentric orbit from the asteroid belt. It measures approximately 40 kilometers in diameter.
Germania is a very large main-belt asteroid. It is classified as a B-type asteroid and is probably composed of dark, primitive carbonaceous material.
Chicago is a very large main-belt asteroid. It is classified as a C-type asteroid and is probably composed of carbonaceous material.
Desiderata is a very large main-belt asteroid. It is classified as a C-type asteroid and is probably composed of carbonaceous material.
Arsinoë, minor planet designation 404 Arsinoë, is a large main-belt asteroid. It is classified as a C-type asteroid and is probably composed of carbonaceous material.
Vaticana is a large Main belt asteroid.
Bertholda is a very large main-belt asteroid. It was discovered by Max Wolf on September 7, 1896, in Heidelberg, Germany. The object is part of the Cybele asteroid group, and is classified as a P-type asteroid.
Edna is a large Main belt asteroid.
Emita is a minor planet orbiting the Sun that was discovered by the Italian astronomer Luigi Carnera on February 12, 1902. The meaning of the asteroid's proper name remains unknown.
Genua is a minor planet orbiting the Sun.
Carina is a minor planet orbiting the Sun.
Evelyn is a main belt asteroid discovered by Raymond Smith Dugan on 19 January 1903. The asteroid was named after Evelyn Smith Dugan, mother of the discoverer.
Cava is a minor planet orbiting the Sun.
Olympia is a minor planet orbiting the Sun.
Marianna is a minor planet orbiting the Sun.
626 Notburga is a large, dark asteroid orbiting the Sun in the asteroid belt.
680 Genoveva is a minor planet orbiting the Sun. It was named after the play Genoveva by Friedrich Hebbel. The name may have been inspired by the asteroid's provisional designation 1909 GW, as W is pronounced 'v' in German, as is V in Latinate names such as 'Genoveva'.
690 Wratislavia is a minor planet orbiting the Sun. Wratislavia was discovered on October 16, 1909. IRAS data shows it is about 135 km in diameter.
712 Boliviana is a C-type asteroid from the asteroid belt, with the type indicating the surface has a low albedo with high carbonaceous content. The spectra of the asteroid displays evidence of aqueous alteration. It is named after Simón Bolívar.
