Scientific paper

Remote-sensing data are the bases of the present tabulation of the mineralogical composition of the asteroid dynamical families' parent bodies, in which correlations are presented between Tholen's (1984) taxonomic types and the family-membership lists of Hirayama (1933), Brouwer (1951), Arnold (1969), Carusi and Massaro (1978), Kozai (1979), and Williams (1979). In conjunction with recently obtained IR and radar data, these tables suggest that most of the smaller proposed families cannot share the origin of the larger, well-defined families as fragments of collisionally disrupted parent bodies.
