\tablecomments{Values describing the  $J-K_S$ color distribution of the objects included in the low-gravity spectral templates.
The minimum, maximum, median, mean, and boundaries of the quartiles are listed in addition to the number of objects included in each template.
Only the median, mean, minimum, and maximum are shown for templates with five objects or less.
These values are plotted in Figure~\ref{fig:JK_colors}.}

\tablenotetext{*}{There are very few L7 type objects in the sample, their average color is not consistent with the \cite{Faherty13_0355} sample (Figure~\ref{fig:JK_colors_F13}) and these should not be considered representative of the entire population.}
