Seems pretty sound to me except for a few things ...
- Usually homozygous is shortened to homo not hom
- Jungle is co-dominant not dominant

This is a list I have been working on maybe it will help you.

Color Mutations:
Albinistic – recessive – two strains: Khal and Sharp
Tyrosinase Positive Albinistic - recessive
Hypomelanistic – dominant
Anerythristic – recessive – two strains: type I and type II
Pastel – polygenic
Blood - recessive

Color Mutation Combinations:
Ghost – homozygous anerythristic heterozygous hypomelanistic
Super Ghost - homozygous anerythristic homozygous hypomelanistic
Snow – homozygous anerythristic homozygous albinistic
Sunglow – homozygous albinistic heterozygous hypomelanistic
Super Sunglow - homozygous albinistic heterozygous hypomelanistic
Bloody Salmon – homozygous blood heterozygous hypomelanistic

Locale Related Color Mutations:
Sunset – homozygous hypomelanistic having 50% Hog Island Boa blood
Slamontine – heterozygous hypomelanistic having 50% Argentine Boa blood

Pattern Mutations:
Arabesque – dominant?
Jungle – co-dominant
Motley – co-dominant
Stripe – recessive
Reverse Stripe – recessive?
Leopard – recessive?

note: '?' indicates mutations where genetic inheritance is not fully known.
