I have seen many axanthic that look very back and white like the aforementioned anerythritic descriptions.



Axanthic and anery terms can and used to be used interchangably. According to Dr. Bern bechtel (author of colubrid gentics) said the yellow and red pigment are present in Florida king morhs so the proper anery and axanthic terms do not necessarlit apply.



However recently there was a new none allelic strain of anery/axanthic which is not compatiple with each other. So for hobbiest sake the anery is the darker morph and the axanthic is the lighter morph.It just makes it easier to describe the two non-alleic morph. But by outcrossing these traits to new phenotypes the anery comes out whiter.



Biggest doifference I see are the eyes. The axanthics have dark eyes while the anerys have lighter irises.
