Out of the several axanthic lines that are known, most, if not all have a bluish/purple sort of undertone, and some are more pronounced than other's too. Axanthics are generally more black and beige/white. Boneyard's side by side photo depicts this very well.

I saw some brooksi at a local pet store that were marked anerythristics that I am sure were axanthics, and some normal dark pigmented adult brooksi that were marked "hypos", even when they had some real hypos in the very next tank..LOL!.......my GOD!, pet stores are just so renowned for not knowing what the hell they have, it's just plain ridiculous. I don't think I have ever walked into a pet store anywhere with snakes that I have not seen at least one or more animals grossly mislabeled..
