    Question Clarify Red-Eye Tree Frog Morphs?

    The Yellow Bodied ones specifically.

    I have SEEN, Yellow bodies with Red Eyes (and what looks like BLACK pupils)
    Yellow Bodies with Red Eyes and Darker Red Pupils
    Yellow Bodies with Pearl Colored eyes and Black Pupils

    Now the names I've heard referring to yellow body morphs (without any consistency to the pictures I find when searching these terms) have been
    Albino
    Leucistic
    Lutino
    Xanthic

    My question for you guys.. Once and for all, What is what?

    These are pics I've found via google of different looking Yellow Bodied RETFs
    (The first picture, however, is MY new froggy. The Pet Store labeled this one "Lutino" I feel sure this is JUST a trade name because when I google that term, hardly anything frog related even pops up!)

    Ok so i Think the ones with redder eyes would be albino, and the ones with the lighter colored eyes and yellow bodies are lutino. Im 90% sure

    The ones with red pupals are Amelinistic/ albino. The others are not. Not sure what people call the other ones as I have never gotten to into red eye tree frogs morphs. Nothing like the beautiful normals

    Here is my take on this, I have purple ones and albino ones. I know it takes a while to be able to tell the albinos from the lutinos. With that said i have some old pics i saved on my photobucket. (These are not my pictures these are random ones i have found)
    Here is a Axanthic

    Some just call these black or melinistic

    Wild type or normal

    And your Albino

    The Pink one that was just posted by a user I believe is a double recessive of two of the morphs (the melinistic one and albino one)

    That is very helpful, the only one that doesn't look like any of those is the "google frog #2" the pupils are red and feet are straight yellow.

    I love them! I really like the perfection of classic RETFs, but I also really adore their morphs!
