Could someone please explain to me what the difference is between a Jungle Boa and simply a boa with an Aberrant pattern.

It's my understanding that the Jungle Boa was spawned from a Boa in Sweden with an Aberrant pattern. This aberrant pattern is apparently a genetic trait that can be passed on. Why is this different from an Aberrant or striped boa that can genetically pass on this trait.

Is there a specific pattern to look for in Jungles?

If so, how does this pattern differ from aberrant patterned boas?

Does a Jungle have to come from this 'Swedish' line?

I see a lot of "Jungle" boas posted and I honestly can't see the difference between those posted and a boa with an aberrant pattern. The big difference seems to be the price, with most Jungles selling in the thousands of dollars.

Please post pics of Jungles vs Aberrant patterned boas if you have them.
