- For the purposes of differentiation, the term asteroid refers to such a belt when it is the main world of a system. The term planetoid belt refers to such a group of minor planets when another belt or world is the main world in a system.
- Asteroid and planetoid belts typically hold between 1,000 and 10,000 asteroids or planetoids each. [1]
