When you "check" this album in iTunes to sync it there is a number beside that indicates how many photos are there in this album. Is it the same with iPhoto? Did you tried to make a new album with different name?

I haven't tried with a different name, will now. And the number of photos in iTunes is different, I have 82 in iTunes and 83 in iPhoto

I just tried to modify this album, deleted a few pics, and created a new album. I still have one less photo in iTunes and it is the one I want to have in my iPhone that is missing!

After trying to add this photo in different albums, I thought there was a problem with that spcific photo so I modified it very slightly (cropped it), and now it is in my iPhone album!!!!

Just read your message, it is a JPG, same as all my other photos. Funny, no?
