Rest-frame U − V vs. V − J for our JWST sample having stellar masses M* > 1010 M and lying in the full redshift interval z = 1.5–5.5 (top), z = 3–4 only (middle), and z = 4–5.5 only (bottom). We show the R. J. Williams et al. (2009) strict selection of quiescent galaxies with solid lines and the F. Valentino et al. (2023) padded selection with dashed lines. We show sources that satisfy the strict selection with blue diamonds, except for luminous LRDs, which we show as red circles. We also show ALMA detections (purple squares; filled for sources with >4.5σ detections, open for >3σ), bright X-ray sources (green triangles), and the remaining sample (black squares). The vertical red line marks our red color selection (see Section 3), with red objects lying to the right.
