Sep 30, 2016 at 12:52 comment added bbgodfrey Note that Plot[1 - x^2, {x, -1.5, 1.5}, Filling -> Axis, FillingStyle -> {Red, White, Blue}] also yields the first plot in your question. This suggests that any instance of incorrect syntax reverts to {Automatic}. Perhaps, FillingStyle considers {None, Automatic} as bad syntax, although the documentation does not say so.

corrected part of explanation.
Sep 30, 2016 at 12:43 comment added bbgodfrey Apparently, anything combined with Automatic yields the first plot in your question,.for instance, FillingStyle -> {Red, Automatic}. I would call this a bug, but others might describe it simply as inadequate documentation.
Sep 30, 2016 at 9:17 comment added Alan My question is whether there is a bug in the handling of Automatic, or have I misunderstood it somehow.
