What is a black type of bearded dragon morph called? From what I've been reading melanin determines how much heat and light a bearded dragon absorbs yet the most common morph seems to be hypo. I want a hyper though (jet black beardie) since logically speaking it would require less heat and would thrive in slightly colder climates. What would such a morph be called?

Wild caughts are far darker, and there are several types of bearded dragons that may get darker, ive seen some as shiny jet black with bright yellow mouth (i cant remember where i seen it, but it was on utube)
