The number of the names at 1Ch 11:26-41 (exclusive of Asahel and Uriah, who were dead) is thirty, and at 1Ch 11:41-47 is sixteen--making together forty-eight (see on 1Ch 27:1-34).

This site's exposition

the armor-bearer of Joab son of Zeruiah

on 1 Chronicles 11:39-41

Naharai the Beerothite was the armor-bearer of Joab, and Joab stands in none of the ranks. The last name the roll shares with Samuel is Uriah the Hittite, whose wife and death fill 2 Samuel 11. Chronicles omits David's sin with Bathsheba, yet it keeps Uriah among the mighty men.

Uriah - The last of that catalogue in 2 Sam. xxiii, 39. But here some others are added to the number, because though they were not of the thirty, yet they were men of great valour and renown amongst David's commanders.

3 Therefore came all the elders of Israel to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the L ORD ; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the L ORD by Samuel. 4 And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, which is Jebus; where the Jebusites were, the inhabitants of the land.
