Examples of candidates for galaxies with polar structures from our sample as seen in the DESI Legacy from left to right: a polar-ring galaxy, a galaxy with a polar (tilted) bulge, a polar-halo galaxy, and a galaxy with a forming polar-ring structure. The coordinates for each galaxy are given in the upper left corner of each plot. The green bars depict a 10 arcsec scale. The darkish shadows show surface brightnesses brighter than 27 mag arcsec−2 in the r band.
