Notes. The table lists: the coordinates of the galaxy’s optical center; the ellipticity; the position angle; the core, tidal and half-light geometric radii; the stellar luminosity in V-band; the tip of the red giant branch magnitude in I-band; the average reddening; the heliocentric distance; the chemo-kinematic parameters obtained in this work, i.e., the systemic velocity, the velocity dispersion, the median metallicity, and the intrinsic metallicity scatter.
