Low surface brightness galaxy says :- It is estimated that 90% of all galaxies are LSB galaxies, not high-surface-brightness types. Currently around 3000 are catalogued (as of 2005). LSBs are mainly isolated field galaxies, found in regions devoid of other galaxies. In their past, they had fewer tidal interactions or mergers with other galaxies, which could have triggered enhanced star formation. This is an explanation for the small stellar content.
