Resumen
La variación fenotípica es común en los vertebrados, especialmente si consideramos las variaciones geográficas, sin embargo, mutaciones como el leucismo, el melanismo y el albinismo no son tan comunes. Aquí, reportamos dos casos de leucismo, en tití común (Callithrix jacchus) y ardilla brasileña (Guerlinguetus aestuans), registrados en fragmentos de Mata Atlántica en el noreste de Brasil. Estos registros nos permiten comprender mejor este fenómeno, así como las implicaciones ecológicas y fisiológicas para los animales, que tienen una influencia significativa en su supervivencia.
