Notes
Based on its relatively featureless optical continuum and strong core emission at optical and radio wavelengths, Wills et al. (2004) argue that PKS 0625−35 is a BL Lac. Our deep Gemin image of this low-redshift WLRG does not reveal any morphological peculiarity associated with a merger or interaction (Ramos Almeida et al. 2011a), but a one-sided jet pointing to the SE can be seen, which was also found by Inskip et al. (2010) in their residual NIR image. The detection of this jet supports the classification of this object as a BL-Lac by Wills et al. (2004).
Based on the extrapolation of the high frequency radio core component towards the infrared region of the spectral energy distribution, it is possible that the non-thermal core synchrotron emission makes a substantial contribution to the MFIR flux in this radio galaxy (Dicken et al. 2008).

Spectral energy distribution. The blue solid line is fitted to the data from 109 to 1010 Hz. Extrapolating this line from the radio to the infrared SED tests whether non-thermal synchrotron emission from the lobes can contaminate the Spitzer mid-infrared flux. In this case the lobes emission lies out of the Spitzer beam so cannot contaminate the Spitzer data. However, extrapolating the, flat spectrum, radio core SED into the infrared, shows that the core synchrotron emission could be a possible source of non-thermal contamination to the thermal infrared flux.
