External morphology, dimensions, texture and shell ornamentation examined under electronmicroscopy show close resemblance to the Recent podocnemidid chelonian eggs. Association with bonymaterial in the outcrop suggests that it is related to a species of Podocnemis.Computerized tomography reveals a high density outer region corresponding to the shell component layers,and successive layers with decreasing density towards the nucleus.
