''Megaloolithus'' is an oogenus of dinosaur egg.〔Carpenter, K. 1999. Eggs, Nests, and Baby Dinosaurs: A Look at Dinosaur Reproduction (Life of the Past). Indiana University Press, Bloomington, Indiana.〕 Some eggs belonging to this oogenus may have been laid by the Titanosaurid Sauropod, ''Hypselosaurus''. They are known for having thick eggshells, at least 1.5 mm thick, and the nearly spherical shape of the eggs.〔K. E. Mikhailov. 1991. Classification of fossil eggshells of amniotic vertebrates. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 36(2):193-238〕 They are primarily found in India and Europe, but some specimens have been found in South America.〔(Paleobiology Database )〕 ==Species== * ''M. aureliensis'' * ''M. baghensis'' * ''M. cylindricus'' * ''M. dhoridungriensis'' * ''M. jabalpurensis'' * ''M. khempurensis'' * ''M. mamillare'' * ''M. megadermus'' * ''M. microtuberculata'' * ''M. mohabeyi'' * ''M. petralta'' * ''M. problematica'' * ''M. siruguei'' * ''M. trempii'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Megaloolithus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
