Resumen:
Albinism is a phenomenon that has been registered in practically all the living groups of vertebrates. A detailed analysis of the literature about true albinism on bats in the world indicates registers of 67 individuals belonging to 38 different species and eigth families. The data are extremely scarce, and for South America, total albinism is known in only four species and two families of bats from Brazil and Venezuela. Here we present a new record of albinism from Sturnira erythromos in Argentina.
