Absorption-corrected hard X-ray luminosities vs. the nuclear MIR luminosities for all LLAGN (filled symbols) and the AGN from G+09 (empty symbols); blue squares: type 1 Seyferts (type 1.5 or lower), red diamonds: type 2 Seyferts; green triangles: LINERs; magenta arrow: NGC 1404 (NELG); Circinus is plotted for comparison only (framed in black); objects marked with a C: Compton thick AGNs (X-ray N_H > 1.5 × 10²⁴ cm^-2); objects highlighted with central black-filled circles: “well-resolved” AGN from G+09; NGC 3125 and NGC 4303 are displayed in gray; filled orange stars: starburst galaxies (total luminosities) from Ranalli et al. (2003); solid line: power-law fit to all LLAGN and AGN displayed in color dashed line: power-law fit to all LLAGN (except NGC 3125 and NGC 4303); dotted line: power-law fit to “well-resolved” AGN from G+09; dot-dashed line: power-law fit to all SB. The hatched areas indicate regions below the detection limit of S/N = 3 for the performed VISIR NeIIref1 imaging: light gray: objects at 20 Mpc; dark gray objects at 10 Mpc; see text for details.
