Check out vmsherp.com there is a fairly decent overview of genetic morphs. I would suggest going to the library and checking out Rpetile and Amphibian Variants by H.Bernard Bechtell as it's my opinion the info on VMSherp.com is basically anextremely condensed "book report". The chapter on chromatophore biology is extremely eyeopening!
Later,
Robert
