In Infrared Astronomy Satellite (IRAS) observations of irregular galaxies, galactic blue luminosities were based on standard optical definitions. The blue luminosities (LB) were derived from the blue absolute magnitude (MB) or form the in band flux. However, the LB system for spiral galaxies was based on quasi-bolometric (rather than in band) fluxes. The formulation and resulting statements are corrected.
