144 Vibilia is a dark, large Main belt asteroid and probably primitive in composition.
It is the only large member of the Vibilia asteroid family.
It was discovered by C. H. F. Peters on June 3, 1875 and named after Vibilia, a Roman goddess.
Vibilia has been observed to occult a star twice so far (in 1993 and again in 2001).
