Lizard mutation list

[geckodan]

Hi all, Before I finalise my book I am trying to make sure I have included all knowm mutations of Australian lizards held in Australia. Would those in the know be kind enough to compile a list of any mutation that you know of, established or not (if you could indicate though if its just a single animal). I don't need names or locales or pics -just a list to work from so I can check off what I may have missed.

Regards
Danny

Hi dan, I was just wondering how best the members could assist with this request and thought maybe if you wanted to post up the list that you have so far it would be easier for people to add anything that they know of that you've missed. does that sound reasonable to you?

Think goaty's 'Australian Smoothy' beardies that have just hatched should get a mention

Off the top of my head -
levis - hypo, leucistic
amyae - hypo
thicktail - hypo, hypermelanistic
castelnaui - hypo

tree skink - albino
eastern bluetongue - albino, hypermel
Blotchy - hypermelanistic, albino
shingleback - albino
hosmers - albino
water dragon - albino, hypermelanistic
beardeds - silkback, leatherback, albino (western), leucistic (barbata)

Blue phase Gippsland Water Dragons, I may be getting one soon and so will have a picture then.

Does patternlessness in pink tongues count as a mutation or just a colour variation?

Dan can you tell us about your book? Even start a new thread if you don't think this thread is the place for it?

eastern bluetongue - albino, hypermel

I have 1 that i would call hypo as there is no black on her at all Tried breeding her last year with no luck , so i have lent her to a more experienced breeder to try and mate her this year and its looking good so far , fingures crossed .
( pictures have been posted on here before )

Its had many mentions over the last eight years I've been slogging away at it - will be out soon (next few months) - There's actually 5 books by me - the bible (covering all Australian lizards) and then 4 companion books (covering the most common species kept). There will also be an elapid, python, frog and turtle text (by other authors) at the same time.

Central Bearded dragons - hypomelanistic

Thought of more:
Northern bluetongue - white
Shingleback - Hypermelanistic?
Levis - Hypermelanistic, Albino (I dont think theres one in Australia though)

Also arent there hypomelanistic marmorata?

Pretty sure they dont count as theyre not mutations, just localities.
