Resumo
The present study reports a case of leucism in South American Lungfish Lepidosiren paradoxa captured in Corrientes, Argentina. It was observed a change in cutaneous pigmentation, and it was concluded that it was leucism and not albinism, since there was a decrease of tegumentary melanin pigment and normal pigmentation in the retina.
