S ummary An occult naevus associated with a halo of depigmentation is described in a ten year old boy. The development of three lesions in this boy supports the concept that the development progressed from leucoderma to halo naevus to normal pigmented naevus instead of the progression from pigmented naevus to halo naevus to leucoderma as is normally found.
