Abstract: During August to November 2009,we captured five males Miniopterus pusillus (Chiroptera:Vespertilionidae) with partial albinism on their ventral neck in a irrigation works cave around suburb of Zengchen City,and one female Hipposideros pomona(Chiroptera:Hipposideridae)with partial albinism on its head and back neck in a bomb shelter in Conghua City,both in Guangdong Province. We measured the forearm length,ear length,ear width,hind-foot length,tibia length, tail length and body mass of the albino individuals,and found that the parameters of albinisms were all in the range of normal individuals. In this paper,we reported the partial albinism of M. pusillus and H. pomona.
