Position of Galactic LBV stars (red squares) in the HR diagram. The sources of the stellar parameters of the LBVs are as follows: Eta Car A (Groh et al. 2012; Hillier et al. 2001), WR 102ka (Barniske et al. 2008), AG Car Groh et al. (2009b; 2011; Groh et al., in prep.), AFGL 2298 (Clark et al. 2009a), FMM 362 and Pistol star (Najarro et al. 2009), Wray 17-96 (Egan et al. 2002), G24.73+0.69 (Clark et al. 2009a), [OMN2000] LS1 (Clark et al. 2009b), HD 316285 (Hillier et al. 1998), HD 160529, HD 168625 and HD 168607 (van Genderen 2001), P Cygni (Najarro 2001; 2011, priv. comm.), HD 326823 (Marcolino et al. 2007), G79.29+0.46 (Trams et al. 1999), and W243 (Ritchie et al. 2009). For comparison, we show evolutionary tracks of rotating models from Ekström et al. (2012), as those in Fig. 1, with the endpoints indicated by green diamonds.
