Comparison of water vapor conductance in a titanosaur egg from the Upper Cretaceous of Argentina and a Megaloolithus siruguei egg from Spain (2008)

Frankie D. Jackson, David J. Varricchio, Robert A. Jackson, Bernat Vila, Luis M. Chiappe

We calculated water vapor conductance (a product of eggshell porosity) from the first definitively identified sauropod egg (Megaloolithus patagonicus) from the Auca Mahuevo locality in Argentina. We...

ABNORMAL, MULTILAYERED TITANOSAUR (DINOSAURIA: SAUROPODA) EGGS FROM IN SITU CLUTCHES AT THE AUCA MAHUEVO LOCALITY, NEUQUÉN PROVINCE, ARGENTINA (2004)

FRANKIE D. JACKSON, ALBERTO GARRIDO, JAMES G. SCHMITT, LUIS M. CHIAPPE, LOWELL DINGUS, DAVID B. LOOPE

Abnormal, multilayered eggshells are frequently reported in fossil specimens. However, previous reports of this pathological condition pertain to taxonomically unidentified fossil eggs or eggshell...

A New Skull of Gobipteryx minuta (Aves: Enantiornithes) from the Cretaceous of the Gobi Desert (2001)

LUIS M. CHIAPPE, MARK NORELL, JAMES CLARK

We describe an exquisitely preserved new skull of a bird from the Late Cretaceous sandstones of Ukhaa Tolgod, southern Mongolia. Derived similarities shared between this skull and the holotype of...

An Embryonic Oviraptorid (Dinosauria: Theropoda) from the Upper Cretaceous of Mongolia (2001)

MARK A. NORELL, JAMES M. CLARK, LUIS M. CHIAPPE

An embryonic oviraptorid skeleton is described within an egg from the Late Cretaceous Djadokha Formation of Ukhaa Tolgod, Mongolia. The specimen comprises the ventral part of the skull and most of...
