Notes. Characterization of the AGB stars in M31 that populate the different F160W bins in the (F110W−F160W, F160W) plane. The symbol ‘% (G22)’ indicates the percentage of stars belonging to the G22 sample, ‘% (sint)’ indicates the percentage of stars predicted by population synthesis, and ‘% (C-stars)’ indicates the fraction of carbon stars predicted by population synthesis in each F160W bin.
