(31175) Erikafuchs is an asteroid of the central main belt that was discovered on December 7, 1997 as part of the OCA-DLR Asteroid Survey (ODAS), a project of the OCA (Observatoire de la Côte d'Azur) and the DLR ( German Center for Air - and space travel ), was discovered at the 90 cm Schmidt telescope of the French Observatoire de Calern ( IAU code 910).

The timeless (non- osculating ) orbital elements of (31175) Erikafuchs are almost identical to those of the smaller one, assuming the absolute brightness of 15.5 compared to 13.0, asteroids (172339) 2002 VL 57 .
(31175) Erika Fuchs was after the German translator Erika Fuchs named (1906-2005), mainly as a translator of Disney - Comics became known.
