  1. #1 Ceres — 939 km

    dwarf planet in the Solar System and largest asteroid of the main asteroid belt

    Ceres is a dwarf planet in the main asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It was the first object identified in the asteroid belt, discovered on 1 January 1801 by Giuseppe Piazzi at Palermo Astronomical Observatory in Sicily, and announced as a new planet. Ceres was later classified as an asteroid, and then more recently as the only confirmed dwarf planet within the asteroid belt, and the largest without a moon. In the minor planet numbering system, its designation is 1 Ceres or... Read more on Wikipedia.

  4. #4 208996 Achlys — 770 km

    trans-Neptunian object

    208996 Achlys (provisional designation 2003 AZ84) is a large trans-Neptunian object orbiting the Sun in the Kuiper belt, a region of icy bodies beyond Neptune. It was discovered on 13 January 2003 by Chad Trujillo and Michael E. Brown at Palomar Observatory. Achlys has an elongated shape that is believed to be distorted by its rapid 6.8-hour rotation. Its diameter is estimated to be roughly 940 km (580 mi) across its equator to 490 km (300 mi) across its poles. After Pluto and Orcus, Achlys... Read more on Wikipedia.

  5. #5 532037 Chiminigagua — 742 km

    Trans-Neptunian object

    532037 Chiminigagua (provisional designation 2013 FY27) is a large trans-Neptunian object in the scattered disc. It was discovered on 17 March 2013 by Scott Sheppard and Chad Trujillo at Cerro Tololo Observatory in Chile. Chiminigagua has a nominal diameter of about 740 km (460 mi), which is large enough that some astronomers consider it a possible dwarf planet. Read more on Wikipedia.
