Gekkoolithus

Gecko egg oogenus From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gekkoolithus is an oogenus of fossil gecko egg. Gecko eggs have not been well-studied, and their fossils are very rare, making classification of them difficult. Gekkolithus eggs are very similar to those of the modern Phelsuma delandis in size, shape, and structure.[1]
