Albinism is rarely documented amongst Neotropical mammals, especially in primates, for which only a few cases have been reported. In this paper, we report the first case of albinism in a wild black-faced black spider monkey (Ateles chamek) found on the Las Piedras River in south-eastern Peru. The individual, a juvenile female, was sighted in a group in primary forest between 2017 and 2020.
