	Proper element catalogs and asteroid families
		We shed additional light on the long-standing question of whether Phocaea is a genuine family or an island isolated by resonances, and we show the impact of nearby secular resonances on the local dynamics.
		For the Vesta family we provide further evidence that the observed spread of the family members is probably due to diffusion in the proper elements caused by non-gravitational effects.
		Next, we discuss the most interesting features of some important asteroid families and regions (Vesta, Phocaea, TNO).

	Phocaea group
		Most of the Phocaea group is a ragbag assemblage of objects without a common ancestry; however, certain members, including (323) Brucia, (852) Wladilena, and (1568) Aisleen, may form a true Hirayama family.
		The group is named after its first discovered member, (25) Phocaea, found in 1853 by the French astronomer Jean Chacornac (1823-1873), although its largest member is the C-class asteroid (105) Artemis, with a diameter of 126 km.
		A cluster of asteroids in the main asteroid belt that were perturbed into high inclination (21 to 25°) orbits by the gravitational effect of the major planets, notably Jupiter, during the earliest period of solar system.
