Abstract
    An albino, immature female, pigeye whaler shark Carcharhinus amboinensis measuring 743 mm in total length was netted with many other normally pigmented sharks at Station Point between Cape Keppel and Seahill on the northern end of Curtis Island, Queensland, February 1987. This appears to be the first known albino individual of this species and the first record of albinism in the family Carcharhinidae.
