Type species

When Sacco established Zonarina, he included the single species Cypraea pinguis, with two varieties, longovulina and spiratina, both Sacco, 1894, and Dolin & Lozouet [2004, Cossmanniana, hors ser. 4: 39] have cited Cypraea pinguis longovulinaSacco, 1894, as the type species by OD. However, under Art. 68.3, C. pinguis is the type species by monotypy ("regardless of any cited subspecies").

Fossil record

Fossils are found in marine strata from the Oligocene to the Miocene (age range: from 23.03 to 5.332 million years ago.). Fossils are known from Italy and France.
