We have developed a catalog of local low surface brightness galaxies (LSBGs) which is selected by objective criteria. We present here a luminosity function (LF) for LSBGs based on that catalog. This LF includes the effects of the completeness corrections to the LSBG catalog, and includes only galaxies with surface brightnesses (22.25 ≤ μB(0) ≤ 24.5) fainter than those included in the CfA Redshift Survey (see Marzke et al. 1994, AJ 108, 437). The best-fitting Schechter function has parameters α = –1.42, M∗B = −18.34, and Φ∗ = 0.0036 h3 Mpc–3 mag–1. Thus, surveys which do not take account of the observational selection bias imposed by surface brightness are missing a substantial fraction of the local galaxies, but, this missed fraction is not large enough to explain the counts of faint blue galaxies observed at moderate redshift.
