I'm glad you're leading the charge on this topic Troy...someone has to do it!

I remember when I used "Albino" to describe an Amelanistic Honduran, I was quickly corrected and never looked back!

Honduran Milks, for example, don't have a true Axanthic or Anerytherisic either...they are more correctly described as HypoErythristic...because they still have red/pink coloration, but are just greatly reduced.



Some people are interested in using the correct terms others don't really care...it's not a huge deal either way, I just try to use the correct terminology if known.
