It's called ...... group! (surprise, surprise). Check out "man group" and you'll see how it works.

/etc/group is not reliable if you want the members of a group.

You need to find the GID in /etc/group and then check /etc/passwd for occurrences of that GID.
This will give you a list of user names (or UID's).
