  • Title: [Allometry of egg mass, clutch size and total clutch mass in dinosaurs: comparison with modern reptiles and birds].
    Author: Dol'nik VR.
    Journal: Zh Obshch Biol; 2001; 62(4):275-85. PubMed ID: 11569140.
    Abstract:
    The author presents for the first time empirical allometrical equations corresponding the mass of dinosaurs with the mass of their eggs, clutch size and its total mass. Comparison of these equations with those that were proposed for modern taxa of reptiles and birds shows that dinosaurs can be characterized by intermediate value of allometry index.
