Color‐magnitude diagram of galaxies with an excess of diffuse sources, compared to the rest of the ACSVCS sample. Colors are from Paper VI and absolute B magnitudes are from BST85 assuming a distance of 16.5 Mpc. While two of the galaxies appear to be significantly bluer than the mean color‐magnitude relation (VCC 798 and VCC 9), other galaxies with DSCs do not have colors that distinguish themselves from normal galaxies. VCC 1199 in the upper left is a companion of M49 (VCC 1226) and is known to be much redder than expected for its luminosity.
