- Abstract : The first record of albinism in salema ( Sarpa salpa (Linnaeus, 1758)) observed in Cabo de Palos, Western Mediterranean, is reported here. The adult specimen showed an overall lack of pigmentation, presented normally coloured eyes and a further local dyspigmentation, being, therefore, classifiable as a partial albino. No noticeable changes in size nor morphology were detected.
