We show that topologically expansive Lorenz maps can be described up to topological conjugacy by their kneading invariants. We also give a simple condition on pairs of symbol sequences which is satisfied if and only if that pair of sequences is the kneading invariant for some topologically expansive Lorenz map. A simple extension of the theorems to the case of expansive maps of the interval with multiple discontinuities is described.
