Anomalous colourations occur in many tropical vertebrates. However, they are considered rare in wild populations, with very few records for the majority of animal taxa. We report two new cases of anomalous colouration in mammals.

Progressive macular hypomelanosis: a common disorder rarely diagnosed in clinical practice
Introduction . Progressive macular hypomelanosis (PMH) is a cutaneous pigmentary disorder resulting from a deficit of melanin and manifesting with disseminated hypopigmented macules. Pityriasis alba, post-inflammatory hypopigmentation (atopic dermatitis,

Glowing Green: A Quantitative Analysis of Photoluminescence in Six North American Bat Species
We provide a quantitative analysis to confirm visual observations of UV‐induced photoluminescence in six North American bat species. We observed green photoluminescence on the wings, uropatagium, and hind limbs of all 60 museum specimens examined. Our results suggest the potential for photoluminescence to be homologous in origin among the species we ...

Piebaldism associated with congenital dyserythropoietic anemia type II (HEMPAS)
Congenital dyserythropoietic anemias (CDAs) are a group of relatively rare inherited anemias. They are characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis and classified as three major groups and a number of variants.

Summary Vitiligo is a common pigment disorder of the skin resulting in destruction of melanocytes. Non‐segmental vitiligo (NSV) is an autoimmune disorder. The etiopathogenesis of segmental vitiligo (SV) remains incompletely understood. Genetic predisposition and increased vulnerability of melanocytes towards stressors lead to a melanocyte‐specific CD8+

Isabelline coloration: a heretofore unrecognized chromatic aberration in bighorn sheep
Coloration is among the characteristics noted first by observers, and color has a strong influence on how animals are perceived. Abnormal coloration has been reported in a variety of taxa, but less frequently among mammals than other classes of ...

Several cases of albinism, melanism, leucism and piebaldism in mammals have already been reported in the scientific literature. Such genetic mutations are important to be reported, because it can affect the ecological interactions of Pampas Fox ...

Skull morphology in native and non‐native cattle breeds in Türkiye
This study explored skull shape and size variations in native (Eastern Anatolian Red, Southern Anatolian Red) and non‐native (Holstein, Simmental) cattle breeds using geometric morphometrics. Non‐native breeds exhibited larger skulls, with Holstein having a more pronounced facial region and Simmental showing a distinct nuchal structure.
