Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
Q. Wang et al. 2012Eggs nearly spheroid. The average polar axis is 9.36 cm, average shape index is 87.50. Thickness of egg- shell is 2.60 mm. Thickness of the cone layer is 0.20–0.25 mm, about 1/10 of the eggshell thickness. There are 20–24 cones per square millimeter. The columnar layer is divided into the inner, medial and outer zone. There are brown bands with varying thickness in the medial zone. The outer zone is composed of coralline-like secondary eggshell units.
