Relation between effective radius and absolute magnitude for Virgo dEs. Flat and round dEs are shown in blue and red, respectively. Large symbols indicate median binned values, with error bars showing the standard deviation. Despite their markedly different spatial and kinematic distributions, the two populations exhibit similar size–luminosity relations. A KS test yields p = 0.27 (left panel), indicating no significant difference in their size distributions.
