Most defining? I doubt it
Pigmentation envolves very little number of genes
For example, the eye colour is made of only 6 pairs of genes (hair colour is the same i think), and pigmentation of 2 pairs, i think. So, pigmentation is very probably the last thing to take in count in a classification, skull is much more important, since the very most of the genetic code of a person is expressed on her skull, and the pigmentation represents less than 0,0001 % of one´s DNA
