Column 1: galaxy name; Cols. 2-8: the present number of GCs (N), its initial value ($N_{\rm i}$), the number of GCs lost ($N_{\rm l}$), the percentage of GCs lost and the estimated relative error on $N_{\rm l}$ ( $\epsilon_{\rm l}$, see Appendix A), the estimate of the initial mass of both the entire GCS ($M_{\rm i}$) and the mass lost by each GCS ($M_{\rm l}$). $M_{\rm i}$ and $M_{\rm l}$ are in solar masses.
