Comparison between the best fitting Schechter parameters and their 68% confidence intervals for the different galaxy types and environments.

Galaxy type	Environment	log [M^∗/M_⊙]	α	GoF^a


Total	Cluster			2.12
Total	Field			4.66
Star-forming	Cluster			1.44
Star-forming	Field			4.15
Quiescent	Cluster			1.21
Quiescent	Field			1.39

Notes.

^(a)

Goodness of Fit (GoF) defined as χ²/d.o.f. for the field survey (we assumed Gaussian statistics owing to the large number counts in this survey). For the cluster fits we used an analogous expression from the Maximum likelihood fitting method.
