SUMMARY We present two cases of prurigo pigmentosa, a little‐known dermatosis characterized by itchy red papules which coalesce to give a reticular pattern evolving into a reticulate hyperpigmented mottling. The histological features are non‐specific and some patients with this disorder respond dramatically to dapsone.
