Caption: Figure 5.

The population of small exoplanets around M dwarf stars (T* < 4000 K) depicting the distribution of stellar metallicities for planet-hosting stars. Planets with published mass measurements >3σ are highlighted in black whereas those without are highlighted in gray. The data points are colored based on their brightness in the J band as a guide for their accessibility to radial velocity measurements.
