Hypomelanistic is reduced black while amelanistic is when the black color is completely missing (the red albino).

These are pics of an amelanistic and hypomelanistic corn snake repectively. They pics were taken from <a href="http://www.cornsnake.net/">South Mountain Reptiles</a> and are copyrighted by them

Hope this helped...
