    Identifying Subtle Morphs

    I have seen some great guides for identifying various morphs. However, as time goes on there are some morphs that I can't find information on. Was wondering if anyone had tricks of the trade they'd like to share for identifying them.

    Obviously not all of these are subtle morphs. I just listed the ones that I've seen around that I'm not very familiar with.

    Phantom
    Harlequin
    Mystic
    Orange Dream
    Platty Daddy
    Desert Ghost
    Chocolate
    Specter
    Special
    Disco
    Josey
    Ghi
    [Python regius]
    1.0 Black Butter Pinstripe (Amazeballs), 1.0 Pastel Butter Leopard (Thunderbeeper)
    0.1 Spider (Charlotte), 0.1 Leopard (Spot), 0.1 Pastel (Buttercup), Fire Sugar (Abaddon), Crystal (Opalescence)

    [Python brongersmai]
    1.1 T+ Albino (Kushiel & Carmilla)

    [Boa imperator]
    1.0 Hypo 100% Het Leopard/66% Het Albino (Darcy)
    0.1 66% Het Leopard/Albino (Gabby)


    [Colubrids]
    0.1 Cave-dwelling Rat Snakes (Betty Spaghetti)

    Chocolates are the only one of those I have a little bit of experience with but I still struggle with some animals. At least with my line (Garcia) I look for a higher ratio of the width of the dark areas to the width of the bright areas on the sides than normal, generally darker dark pattern (black with iridescence) and even somewhat dark light areas, a light fade across the back of the head, nice milk chocolate to the dark on the side of the neck and a tendency for white pixilation in the flames where the dark sides meet the belly and also a tendency for dark marks on the belly. Not all chocolates have all of those characteristics though. One that I've been meaning to look into is dark eyes but I'm not sure on that yet.
