Caption: Figure 6.

Left panel: normalized spectra from nine early- to late-type M dwarfs selected from our catalog. In this figure, we highlight objects of varying ST that are similarly metal-rich. Their SDSS names are indicated above each spectrum. Right panel: rectified spectra from the left panel (black), with their best-fit rectified template (red) overlaid. The given template ST and MC values are listed above each spectrum-template combination. The templates are well representative of the given molecular band strengths for their given spectra.
