My auratus froglets are coming out with a pretty unique pattern, almost like a Microspot, except with only two black spots, one directly in front of the other. Has anyone seen froglets like this before, or are these PGBs an entirely new pattern?

Many auratus locals can greatly change in appearance as the age, I think they will gain more black as they get older. This of course is speculation, and if they do retain these characteristics they are not a new form of auratus rather their phenotype is just expressed differently.
I bet it will change. I've had auratus come out similar to that, and the black, bronze, green, turquoise, etc. usually changes as the frog ages.
Technically, every frog is a "new pattern" because each frog has slightly different patterns (different DNA). Even if this frog did have an unusual pattern and kept it as it aged, it wouldn't be a new type of auratus.

Your froglets actually to me look like Green and Bronze, Mine throw patterns like yours as well as some with 1 or 2 small spots.
