We base the cluster catalog on the dense HectoMAP redshift survey (2000 redshifts deg^-2^). The HectoMAP FoF catalog includes 346 clusters with 10 or more spectroscopic members within the range 0.05&lt;z&lt;0.55 and with a median z=0.29. We list these clusters and their members. We also include central velocity dispersions ({sigma}_*,BCG_) for the FoF cluster BCGs, a distinctive feature of the HectoMAP FoF catalog. HectoMAP clusters with higher galaxy number density (80 systems) are all genuine clusters with a strong concentration and a prominent BCG in Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam images. The phase-space diagrams show the expected elongation along the line of sight. Lower-density systems include some low reliability systems. We establish a connection between BCGs and their host clusters by demonstrating that {sigma}_*,BCG_/{sigma}_cl_ decreases as a function of cluster velocity dispersion ({sigma}_cl_), in contrast, numerical simulations predict a constant {sigma}_*,BCG_/{sigma}_cl_. Sets of clusters at two different redshifts show that BCG evolution in massive systems is slow over the redshift range z&lt;0.4. The data strongly suggest that minor mergers may play an important role in BCG evolution in clusters with {sigma}_cl_&lt;300km/s. For lower mass systems ({sigma}_cl_&lt;300km/s), major mergers may play a significant role. The coordinated evolution of BCGs and their host clusters provides an interesting test of simulations in high-density regions of the universe.</description><source format="bibcode">2021ApJ...923..143S</source><referenceURL>https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJ/923/143</referenceURL><type>Catalog</type><contentLevel>Research</contentLevel><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/TAP">TAP VizieR generic service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource>Conesearch service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>related-to</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/VII/4">VII/4 : Abell and Zwicky Clusters of Galaxies (Abell+ 1974)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/VII/86">VII/86 : Groups of Galaxies.
