Distribution. Known only from Trindade and Martim Vaz Islands.

Habitat. Rocks and corals, subtidal, ~ 20 m depth ( Fig 3L and 3M View Fig 3 ).

Etymology. The specific epithet is in apposition; it is a reference to mammoths, which are widely recognized for their huge size and heavy build, an allusion to the large proportions and heavy shell of new species. Moreover, the long anterior projections of the shell are reminiscent of a mammoth’s tusk. The epithet also follows the tendency of naming Macrocypraea ’s after animals.
