Many abnormalities in the coloration of fishes have been recorded, including albinism, melanism and ambicoloration (e.g. DAHLBERG, 1970). Melanism, according to Gould and Pyle (1896), is characterized by the presence of an excessive amount of pigment in tissues and skin. In fishes, melanism may occur in varying degrees of intensity (PIGG, 1998) and can, in some cases, result from injury (DAHLBERG, 1970), genetic inheritance (HORTH, 2006), intergeneric hybridization (ELWIN, 1957) or parasite infestation (HSIAO, 1941)
