The therizinosaur egg is an illustration, correct?

The description should be very clear on this point. 74.64.121.56 (talk) 19:25, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well if it isn’t an illustration then how do the scientists know it is exactly the therizinosaur‘s eggs?

Surely it is an illustration.

Duplicated text

At least two paragraphs are duplicated. The last two paragraphs of the "Scanning electron microscopy" section seem to be identical to those in the "X rays" section. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 02:42, 8 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
