    $\begingroup$ That's a good question. I know the new default colors are ColorData[97] with some slight variations between different plots. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 10, 2014 at 19:15
  • $\begingroup$ The first two colours are occasionally exchanged, e.g. in Histogram. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 10, 2014 at 19:17

  • $\begingroup$ I notice that you haven't Accepted kguler's answer. I added my own including a mapping for ColorData indexed colors and information on how to find the gradient used by e.g. BarChart[{Range@99}, PlotTheme -> "Sunrise"]. Is this more to your liking? Is there something else I can look for to improve my answer? $\endgroup$ Commented Aug 4, 2014 at 21:34
