Well fulica rodatzi have been classed as albino shell but normal body on a few of the sites I've looked at. Some have been albino shell and albino body, but others have had a "normal" body.
Soo... it could be possible with others?

...although it is likely they are albino-shelled if they were collected in the same place. According to D.Herbert most of the Achatinidae are not found mixed very often.
