Macroolithus
- ... that pigments found in fossil eggshells of Macroolithus indicate a blue or green coloration, possibly with speckles? Source: "Thus, while the precise colour of the dinosaur eggs cannot be reliably reconstructed, it likely would have been olive green in immaculate eggs or speckled brown on a bluish background if the eggs were maculated. However, we can assume that the overall colour impression of the Heyuannia eggshell ranged from blue to green" [1]
