If you are talking about descriptions, just describe them in regular terms. If it is actually a genetic trait, you should be sure what it is before putting a name to it (usually, those animals are purchased with those names already ascribed to them).
The traits, morphs, and descriptions vary by the species (though some are the same), and the list is too long to just randomly try to explain. If there are specific things you are interested in, just ask
