The notion of a totally umbilical submanifold of a Finsler manifold is introduced. Some Gauss equations are given and some results on totally umbilical submanifolds of Riemannian manifolds are generalized. Totally umbilical submanifolds of Randers spaces are studied; a rigidity theorem and an example are given.
