In this note I describe the first observation of partial leucism in the Variable Seedeater (Sporophila corvina corvina). The observation was made in Suerre, Pococí, Costa Rica, on 26 July 2021. These observations have important conservation implications for wild birds because they may be associated with environmental, populational and nutritional issues. This record adds to other studies of plumage aberration in wild birds of the Neotropics, and contributes to knowledge on the natural history and conservation of this species. 2021 artículo científico 1870-7459 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=75674979005 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/756/75674979005/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/756/75674979005/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/756/75674979005/75674979005.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/756/75674979005/movil 10.28947/hrmo.2021.22.2.613 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=756 Huitzil.
