The A.P.T.O.R is a new Leopard Gecko morph, or rather, a combination of several morphs, originally developed by Ron Tremper. It debuted in Fall, '04. These geckos have the following traits: Tangerine, Carrot Head, Carrot Tail, Patternless (a new patternless gene- not the common "leucistic" or Murphy Patternless), Jungle, Stripe, and Reverse Stripe, and Giant Albino.

R.A.P.T.O.R Leopard Geckos are basically the same as Aptors, except they have bright red eyes. Ideally, the eyes are solid red, but some partial red eye and partial normal eye patterns are also seen.
Right, that info is basically a cut and paste of Ron Tremper's (the person who actually originated the morph) description of these morphs when they were introduced. I was just pointing out that your original description of "8 morphs" being used to create APTOR's and RAPTOR's is actually not correct. The true "patternless" morph has absolutely nothing to do with either the APTOR or RAPTOR, the giant gene is not necessarily included either and again, stripes, jungles, aberrants, etc. all seem to stem from the same gene.
