Abstract
Piebaldism is characterized by the absence of melanin in certain areas of the body due the lack of melanocytes as a result of genetic mutations, and which occurs only locally. This study reports the first record of piebaldism for Eptesicus taddeii, a species of bat, endemic to the Atlantic Forest in the South Region of Brazil.
