EXAMPLE SENTENCES

Xanthochroism is commonly observed among populations native to northern european regions. The biologist documented xanthochroism in a bird species that normally displayed dark plumage. Xanthochroism differs from albinism because the eyes retain their normal pigmentation. The xanthochroism observed in the reptile specimen made it appear golden rather than its usual brown. Researchers investigated the genetic mechanisms underlying xanthochroism in various animal species.
