Question about amel variation

Susan

Go Ahead, Make My Day!
I remember seeing a site where they had an amel variation whose white bands around the saddles were not white, but a greenish-yellow color. I can't remember what they called it. My amel zigzag shows this coloration, especially closer to her tail (the bands are much wider there). Does anyone know what this variation is called? The pic doesn't show the color as much as in real life, but you should get the idea.
 
I've heard that it's called the Chirstmas corn.......or something like that....
not 100% sure about this.....but I think that's what its called..
 
There was one person selling them as Harlequin corns, IIRC, but from what I understand, they've gone out of business. I don't know how common/rare the trait is, but I have an amel which shows the same trait (and the camera will not capture the color on her either). I don't think the trait is due to any emoryi ancestry (despite hearing speculation that it is), as the breeder I bought the amel from refuses to breed anything that even resembles an emoryi cross.
 
I found the answer to my own question...the term I had heard before was "lime".
