I'd say it depends on two main factors. How prolific the original wild caught het was, and how it's offspring were marketed. If it was a prolific male owned by a private breeder who mainly sold pairs to other breeders then yes you would expect amels to pop up in multiple collections. If it was a female, not very prolific and the offspring were wholesaled into the pet trade then they would most likely be sold as pets and the genetics could very easily be sparsely represented, or spread so far and wide that no amels ever surfaced.



Remember the supposedly pure amel thayeri that surfaced only once in the nineties, never to surface again. I doubt there were much more wild thayeri collected than Pueblan's.
