An excess of around 400 asteroids in the distribution of the semimajor axes of the asteroids is identified by means of numerical integrations as generated by a population of approximately 1000 asteroids evolving inside the exterior resonance 1:2 with Mars. Approximately 200 asteroids are librating around the asymmetric libration centers and their evolution in a time-scale of 1 million years appears stable but with a strong influence of Mars' eccentricity. The biggest Mars 1:2 resonant asteroid is (142) Polana.
