An individual specimen of Galapagos shark (Carcharhinus galapagensis) was observed in the waters surrounding Malpelo Island, Colombia, on the 9th of July 2016 and the 13th of June 2019, which was identified by direct observation, photos, and videos obtained during scuba diving. The individual was approximately 2 m in total length and presented white coloration throughout its body (back and belly). Due to the extent and uniformity of the unusual coloration, the individual could be considered an albino. This record constitutes the first verified report of albinism for this species.
