Caption: Figure 1.

The HST/COS NUV acquisition images for galaxies in our sample. For each panel, we overlay the COS aperture with a diameter of 2.″5 as the red circle and denote the spectral dispersion axis by the black arrow. Objects are ordered by the measured escape fraction of Lyman continuum (﹩{f}_{\mathrm{esc}}^{\mathrm{LyC}}﹩; see Section 3.1.1), while the last two objects have ﹩{f}_{\mathrm{esc}}^{\mathrm{LyC}}﹩ as upper limits.
