Faveoloolithidae

Zhao and Ding 1976

Faveoloolithidae is an oofamily of dinosaur eggs. It contains Faveoloolithus, Hemifaveoloolithus, Parafaveoloolithus, and probably Sphaerovum. However, unlike the other Faveoloolthids, Sphaerovum has compactituberculate ornamentation more similar to megaloolithids. Like Dictyoolithidae, the membrane and the calcareous part of the eggshell formed simultaneously instead of forming the membrane before the calcareous like modern birds.
