Its a high white, just not very clean. Its not a local type but a product of crossing newporters(see tail top) Black&white(for the white) a coastal melinistic(to reduce dark coloration?) the melinistics unified the pattern, only it did it with both the dark and the lite colors. So we kept the white and yellow ones, then cleaned up the dark cast.

For instance, the Choco banana posted below is a non-cleaned up example.

I am not sure what the name is NOW of a all white or nearly all white. I have seen a few without any dark markings on the body, Just the head markings. Maybe a legbone Calking, hahahahahahahaha

People who actually do this understand there is no clear line between these types(trade names) there are only extreme examples. For instance, a black king is a king thats black. If its not black, all black then its not a black king. A banana king has to be bright yellow and almost no dark, or its not a banana. And many other cases. There are mostly tweeners.

As far as I know, there are no true morphs, that is, they breed entirely true. For generations, other then pure heteros like albinism. Cheers
