# Possibly a daughter named [[Cleopatra VI|Cleopatra Tryphaena]]. Porphyry mentions a daughter Cleopatra Tryphaena who ruled with her sister [[Berenice IV|Berenice]].<ref>[http://www.attalus.org/translate/eusebius1.html#167 Eusebius: Chronicle p. 167, accessed online]</ref> Strabo however states that Ptolemy had three daughters of whom only the eldest (Berenice) was legitimate.<ref>[http://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Roman/Texts/Strabo/17A2*.html#1.11 Strabo, Geography, Book XVII, accessed online]</ref> Suggesting that the Cleopatra Tryphaena referred to by Porphyry may have been Ptolemy's wife, not his daughter. Many experts now identify [[Cleopatra VI]] with [[Cleopatra V of Egypt]], Ptolemy's wife.<ref name="Tyldesley">Tyldesley, Joyce. Chronicle of the Queens of Egypt.
