I saw that when I read Scott’s site more toughly. The photo of the two different Amels and Snows was interesting. Did one “mask” the other, such as Homo Nebraska, Iowa and Anery look like an Iowa Snow? The Iowa seems more extreme. I think the Nebraska Amel looks like some extreme hypos in other species. I would love to see one in person.
I guess Scott’s email was referring t the Easterns, because he tested out these two. When I read the Christmas write up, I couldn’t tell if they were a different gene, or a more colorful line of Iowa or Nebraska. Which double het for snow female did the line come from, Iowa or Nebraska, or another line?
The Plains Garter group is a great subspecies. There are a lot of genes to combine to make double homo morphs and beyond.
