Any hypomelanistic mexicana's besides Applegates?

scvreptiles Aug 01, 2005 04:50 AM

I was just wondering if there were any other forms of hypo in the mexicana complex besides Mr. Applegates hypo greeri?

Thanks,

Ken

I have yet to hear about or see any other mexicana that is hypomelanistic.
I have seen some thayeri that have no black, but I don't think they are hypo. I, myself, am working on a no black thayeri....I still think they would not be considered a hypo though.

I think a no black thayeri would compare to an Applegate pyro. He does not call them hypos.
His pyros just lack the black area of pigment on their bodies....their heads still have the black pigment.

Oh yeah....And Bob's hypo Greeri are awesome!
