The simulated galaxies at z=2 satisfy the color-selection criteria proposed by Adelberger et al. (2004) and Steidel et al. (2004) when we assume Calzetti extinction with E(B-V)=0.15. We find that the number density of simulated galaxies brighter than R<25.5 at z=2 is about 1e-2 h^3 Mpc^-3 for E(B-V)=0.15, which is roughly twice that of the number density found by Erb et al. (2004) for the UV bright sample. This suggests that roughly half of the massive galaxies with M*>10^{10} Msun/h at z=2 are UV bright population, and the other half is bright in the infra-red wavelengths. The most massive galaxies at z=2 have stellar masses >= 10^{11-12} Msun. They typically have been continuously forming stars with a rate exc...
