The way I understand it now is extreme hypo is the proper name for the very lightest hypos with the silver banding. A couple people used to call them supers but now extreme is the excepted name. I believe a few people call low bandcounts supers, 12 pairs of bands or less above the vent. Even though I think extremes may be a "Super" co-dominent form. Maybe someone else will help elaborate more.
