In agreement with earlier results for dark matter subhalos, we find that the mean occupation function <N> for galaxies above a baryonic mass threshold can be approximated by a step function for central galaxies plus a power law for satellites, and that the distribution of satellite numbers is close to Poisson at fixed halo mass.
