图书简介
This bookdocuments analyses of the Late Cretaceous dinosaur nesting sites of the Lameta Formation at Jabalpur, Districts Dhar and Jhabua, Madhya Pradesh; Districts Kheda and Panchmahal (Gujarat); and the Pisdura, Dongargaon and Pavna sectors in the Chandrapur Districts of Maharashtra, which are exposed in India along an east-west and centralaxis.In this work, special emphasis has been given to the dinosaur nesting sites of the east-central Narbada River region, including its regional geology. Thework was undertaken to provide detailed information concerning dinosaur eggs, eggshell fragments, nests and clutches found in the Lameta Formation of peninsular India. Prior to the present work there had been no detailed review of systematic work on the taxonomy, and of micro- and ultrastructural studies of dinosaur eggs and eggshells from the Lameta Formation.The study documents the field and laboratory investigations that facilitated thereconstruction ofthemorphotaxonomy, models fortheburial pattern ofeggs and eggshells, taphonomic implications,and thepalaeoenvironmental context and palaeoecological conditions during theLate Cretaceous atthetime oftheextrusion oftheDeccan traps, which may have been partly responsible fortheextinction ofthedinosaurs. The need tofollow a parataxonomic classification forIndian dinosaur eggs and eggshell types is very apparent, and this book addresses this aspect in some detail. Theemphasis ontheapplication ofparataxonomic schemes is based onthedescription ofnew oospecies and their comparison withpreviously known forms. The present work has led totherecovery ofnumerous nests, many collapsed eggs and hundreds ofdinosaur eggshell fragments fromthelocalities situated near theeast, west and central Narbada River regions. It will be ofinterest toacademics and professional palaeontologists, and all students ofdinosaurs.
