The fraction of galaxy light that is not ascribed to the bulge and disc components (fother) as a function of the bulge stellar mass and absolute V-band bulge magnitude corrected for Galactic and internal extinction. S0 and spiral galaxies are shown as green boxes and blue crosses, whereas the elliptical galaxies from this work are denoted by black circles. We also add 13 massive elliptical galaxies (stars) from Dullo & Graham (2014), Dullo (2019). Excluding irregular galaxies, the fraction of LeMMINGs galaxies having fother ≥ 20% is ∼26% (43/167), this figure increases to ∼40% (67/167) for fother ≥ 5% (i.e. above the dashed horizontal line). The blue, green, and black tracks trace the median trend for the binned spiral, S0 and elliptical galaxy data. Most (71%) elliptical galaxies have fother ∼ 0. A track is not shown for our irregular galaxies which are excluded due to their small number (6 objects). Representative error bars are shown at the bottom.
