Appendix A: Color maps

gi color maps are given for all five galaxies. Each panel has a different angular scale, appropriate to indicate relevant color features in each galaxy. For all figures north is up, east to the left.

Left panel: gi color map of NGC 2865. Right panel: g surface brightness map of NGC 2865. Both figures have the same size and scale. The black/white boxes indicate the radial feature discussed in the text.

gi color map for the central parts of NGC 3962. Left panel: Gemini/GMOS map, 1′ aside. The central blue area is due to detector saturation. Right panel: SOAR/SAM color map, 30′′aside. Albeit with lower S/N, it shows details that are not visible in the Gemini image because of saturation.

Appendix B: Surface brightness profiles

g and i surface brightness profiles are given for each galaxy as measured with iraf/ellipse. The indicated radii are the mean geometric radii of each fitted ellipse. Radii are given in arcseconds, the surface brightness in mag/arcsec2.
