The surface distribution of M stars is studied by differentiating them according to whether they show a circumstellar dust shell (CS) or not. Analysis shows that galactic latitudinal and longitudinal distributions are not determined by spectral subclasses alone. The study also indicates that M-type stars with CS have higher luminosities in the K band than those without CS. The M stars used in the study are obtained from the Two-Micron Sky-Survey Catalogue. The CS feature is identified by the ratio of flux densities at 12 and 25 μm in the IRAS point source catalog.
