Moreover, at $\mstar<8\times10^7\msun$, only 1 (LGS 3) of the 51 satellites is star-forming, and at $\mstar<9\times10^5\msun$ \emph{all} 40 satellites are quiescent.
These near-unity quiescent fractions for satellites of the MW/M31 contrast strongly with the nearly \emph{zero} quiescent fraction observed for isolated (non-satellite) galaxies at $\mstar<10^9\msun$ \citep[][see Introduction]{Geha2012, Phillips2014}.
The only clear exceptions are
the quiescent galaxies KKR 25 ($\mstar=1.4\times10^6\msun$) and KKs 3
($\mstar=2.3\times10^7\msun$), quiescent galaxies that are ($\mstar=2.3\times10^7\msun$) at $\approx2\mpc$ from the MW/M31.

more like 10^5 (again, in the SDSS cone, which we at least hope is a representative sample).
If you want to go out to like an Mpc (~splashback?), then you're getting more towards %at 1 Mpc, completeness ony
for > 10^6, so missing things in the 10^ 5-8 range might indeed be a selection effect (especially given presumably there are more fainter ones).
