الوصف: With the published data of apparent axis ratios for 1109 ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) located in 17 low-redshift (z~ 0.020 - 0.063) galaxy clusters and 84 UDGs in 2 intermediate-redshift (z~ 0.308 - 0.348) clusters, we take advantage of a Markov Chain Monte Carlo approach and assume a ubiquitous triaxial model to investigate the intrinsic morphologies of UDGs. In contrast to the conclusion of Burkert (2017), i.e., the underlying shapes of UDGs are purely prolate ($C=BComment: Accepted for publication in ApJ; new version
