Pigmentary abnormalities in mammalian fur can be associated with factors such as follicular damage, little genetic variability, pollution, environmental changes, or dietary deficiencies. Documenting this pattern is important since the coat is one of the most important characters of the integumentary system in mammals. In Colombia, leucism had not been registered in small mammals. Thus, in this note the phenomenon is recorded in six species of mammals belonging to orders Rodentia, Soricomorpha and Paucituberculata.Las anomalías pigmentarias en el pelaje de mamíferos pueden estar asociadas a factores como daño folicular, poca variabilidad genética, polución, alteraciones ambientales o deficiencias dietarias.
