Dominant - (Lemon Hypo)

  

Lemon Hypo

These hyperxantic animals were discovered by Jeff Galewood Jr. of JMG. He also proved their dominant inheritance.

Lemon Hypos do not only greatly increase the amount of yellow, at the same time they have a very interesting effect on the black colour. Firstly, the black is partly replaced by a medium to caramel brown and secondly the black on the belly is replaced by a kind of pattern reduction.
