... brightness[*]
However, we investigated the possibility that lines did not share common kinematics, but we did not find evidence of this.

... panel[*]
The different trend (high increase) of $\chi^2_{r}[scaled]$ at small angles with respect to NGC 3998 (Paper I, Fig. 11) is determined by the a priori fixing of an upper limit for ${\it\Upsilon _V}$ values.

...Ferrarese & Ford (2005)[*]
We normalized the central velocity dispersion to an aperture of radius equal to 1/8 of $R_{\rm e}$ and derived $\sigma_{\rm R_{\rm e}/8} = 255 \pm 17$  $\rm {~km ~s}^{-1}$.
