Fig. 1

Distribution of the absolute r-band magnitude of the volume-limited sample (309 galaxies, black solid line), representative sample of late-type spirals (30 galaxies, blue dotted line), and observed sample (9 galaxies, red filled histogram). The dashed line corresponds to the r-band luminosity function of SDSS galaxies by Tempel et al. (2011).
