Meyer, Christopher P. and Tweedy, Sarah M. 2017. "A new subspecies of Cypraea tigris LINNAEUS 1758 (Gastropoda: Cypraeidae)." Acta Conchyliorum, 16 59–68.
Cypraea tigris lorenzi n. ssp. from the Marquesas Islands differs from the other Indo-Pacific populations of that species by being wider, with more angular margins, and a greater relative mass. The molecular data sets the population apart as a separate monophyletic lineage.
