Registros de leucismo en cuatro especies de murciélagos (Chiroptera) en la Estación de Biodiversidad Tiputini, Ecuador: Vampyressa thyone, Uroderma bilobatum, Artibeus obscurus y Noctilio albiventris

Mammalia aequatorialis, 2022
El leucismo es una afección de la pigmentación del pelaje del animal por fallas en la producción de tirosinasa. El individuo puede presentar manchas de color blanco en todo o en ciertas partes del cuerpo, así como un pelaje completamente blanco, pero manteniendo el color de los tejidos blandos (ojos, uñas, etc.). Dentro del orden Chiroptera, se presume
