East China’s volcanic terrain is ideal for fossil hunters, who discovered the unusual eggs
Two cannonball-size dinosaur eggs filled with crystals have been discovered by paleontologists in China.
Three eggs were dug up from the basin's soil, but only two remain; the researchers who made the discovery noted that the third was"lost and still in the process of collection." Whether the third egg was misplaced, damaged during excavation or stolen is unclear. The two remaining eggs have been classified with the name Shixingoolithus qianshanensis, making them a newly described oospecies. The researchers published their findings Aug. 25 in the Journal of Paleontology.
A prior study published in 2014 in the journal Cretaceous Research suggested that previously discovered Shixingoolithus eggs of a different species likely belonged to an ornithopod — a group of duck-billed, herbivorous and mostly bipedal dinosaurs that grew to up to 30 feet long.
