摘要:
Review of the Past 15 years’ Research on Fossil Eggs in China
      The recent 15 years (1993-2008) is a period with marked progress in China's research on fossil eggs. Research of this area was focused on the relation of sedimentary basin stratigraphy and fossil egg succession in the sediments. Studies on pterosaur embryo contained in fossil egg; the first attempt to get DNA from fossil eggs by using molecular biology method are examples of this progress. The establishment of Xixia Fossil Egg Museum can be taken as a mark of this achievement. The research, among others, has revealed the similarity and difference in egg shell structure between dinosaur and bird, which sheds light on the evolution from reptile to bird. This paper gives descriptions to biostratigraphy of Cretaceous sedimentary basins and egg fossils from these basins; as well as new ideas on fossil egg classification and the behavior of the animals that may have relation to the eggs.
