封面故事：江西赣州晚白垩世地层含胚胎骨骼的恐龙蛋化石。在我国的首次发现标志着中国的恐龙蛋研究进入了自然分类阶段。该化石的蛋体形态和蛋壳显微结构研究证明，与以往在广东发现的瑶屯巨型蛋(Macroolithus yaotunensis)同为一属。骨骼学研究表明，可能是黄氏河源龙(Heyuannia huangi)或与其亲缘关系相近的窃蛋龙所产。这项由中国地质科学院地质研究所季强研究员主持的研究成果，当选2008年度中国地质科学院十大科技进展。详见本期第285-290页。(照片提供：季强)
Cover Story：Dinosaur egg with embryonic skeletons from Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province. This first report in China indicates that the study of dinosaur eggs in China has entered into the stage of natural classification. From both macro- and micro- struc-tures of the egg shells in the same horizon of the same area, it can be referred to the oospecies, Macroolithus yaotunensis Zhao, 1975. The morphology of the preserved part of the embryonic skeletons suggests that it might have been laid by an oviraptorid, Heyuannia huangi from Guangdong Province or a closely related oviraptorosaurian, which probably lived in Ganzhou area too in Late Cretaceous. The research achievement directed by Professor JI Qiang, Institute of Geology, CAGS, ranks “Top Ten Scientific and Technological Progresses of CAGS in 2008”. For details, see pp.285-290.
