Procedure: This experiment compares the host integrated colors with the SN site colors using the physically sized apertures at 500pc, 1kpc and 2kpc in diameter.

Interpretation: The J-K colors barely distinguish the SN types while the FUV-NUV and FUV-K colors separate the SN types well. The sample size for the 500pc aperture produces a fairly noisy distribution. One would expect the 2kpc aperture to approximate the host integrated results, but even with large numbers there appear to be major differences. This may be due to a limitation in the host integrated sample size.

The distributions of SNe Ia and Ibc colors extend to redder host populations than the SNe II populations.
