Researchers of the Institute of Oceanology, Academia Sinica, collected 46 species and subspecies of Cypraeidae during their 1955-1978 surveys on the marine mollusks along the coasts of Guangdong, Guangxi and Hainan Provinces and Xisha (Paracels) Islands in the South China Sea. Twelve species belonging to 7 genera with their egg masses were collected mainly from the intertidal zone where the animals were laying their eggs. The collection dates of each of the species and a preliminary description of their egg masses are given in this paper.
