...as the ball python world? It would be nicer (and more respectful) if something genetically reproducible is named as simple as possible and also includes the originators last name to define the line. Some examples are could be...
a Bumgardner Patternless hognose
a Mitchum Red Albino hognose
a Russo Axanthic hognose
a [insert last name] Hypo hognose
a [insert last name] stripe hognose
a [insert last name] reduced pattern hognose
a [insert last name] patternless hognose
The hognose in the original post has extremely deep coloring, but when trying to describe it's pattern, twin spotted or hyper-spotted seems to link a name with it's description.
Again, for visual clarification, this is what would make me think of the words "reversed striped"; actually it makes me think of the words "reduced pattern" but you get the idea...
