The M_* vs. SFR (from SED fits) for the target samples at z ∼ 1.6 in the FMOS-COSMOS survey. Red solid and black dashed contours show the distribution (containing 68% and 90%) of the parent galaxies limited with (i.e., Primary-parent sample) and without the threshold ﹩{F}_{{\rm{H}}\alpha }^{\mathrm{pred}}\geqslant 1\times {10}^{-16}\,\mathrm{erg}\,{{\rm{s}}}^{-1}\,{\mathrm{cm}}^{-2}﹩. Correspondingly, yellow and white stars indicate the median SFRs in bins of M_*, respectively, for the parent galaxies with and without the limit on the predicted Hα flux. Objects in the Primary-HL sample are indicated by blue circles, with X-ray-detected objects marked by magenta diamonds. Orange open and filled squares indicate the PACS-parent and PACS-HL samples (Section 3.2).
