As far as I know, the only albino supertigers known to have been produced were from the Type II "amelanism" strain (amel is a misnomer, as in actuality, all albino retics are amelanistic). There is another strain, I believe different from both Type I and Type II, that albino tigers and possibly supers have been produced from. Type I albinos are the most common ones, which include the whites, lavendars, dark lavendars, and purples. That seems kind of odd though, because the Type Is are by far the most numerous, so you'd think that albino supers of that strain would have been produced first. It could be that there have been Type I albino supers produced, people are just keeping them under wraps. I know a purple tiger or two have been produced, but you never hear much about them!!
