What is the difference between abberant and jungle pattern, if any? If so, are there pictures to demonstrate this? Thanks- Neill

An abberrant pattern is one where the body bands are broken up into an unusual pattern. A Jungle has body bands that are broken up and the tail bands are similarly broken up or replaced by stripes.

+1 to what Tony said. Some may also argue that to be classified as a Jungle, an Aberrant gecko must have a broken neck band, but that's debateable. Having broken tail bands is a must though :)

Jungle (you can see the broken, almost completely missing neck band in the hatchling pic)

Aberrant body + Banded tail = Aberrant.

Banded body + Aberrant tail = Aberrant.

Aberrant body + Aberrant tail = Hyper aberrant-(AKA-Jungle).
