Abstract

We are studying the host galaxies and cluster environments of a sample of radio-loud AGN. The sample is large enough to compare sub-samples (quasars, FRI and FRII radio galaxies, RBL and XBL). First results show that elliptical host galaxies fall on the μ e — r e relation of bright elliptical galaxies.
