The arabesque is one of my favorite morphs I hope to own.

Steve Hamond (sp?) was the originator of the original line. It is a dominant (proven thus far not to be a visually different homozygous or 'super' form) genetic trait.
They appear similar to what is commonly refered to as a circle back ladder tail. The arabesque normally has thinner lines and is always genetic in inheritance. They typically are heavily speckled and often have interesting color influences, which can really be seen when combined with the albino gene.
Look at various pictures and you will soon be able to identify them, Tom Burkes site has a few good pictures.
