Distribution of stellar mass as a function of redshift for the sample of spatially resolved continuum galaxies (red markers). Galaxies suitable for the analysis of spatially resolved gas kinematics (C16; Contini et al., and in prep.) are indicated by the grey symbols. Above redshift z = 0.8, no galaxies are spatially resolved in their continuum owing to the natural decrease of the apparent magnitude with redshift and significant OH sky line contamination in the MUSE wavelength range at these redshifts.
