[1] The eggshell fragments now classified as Dispersituberoolithus were collected between 1987 and 1995 by field crews working for the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology.
[1] Dispersituberoolithus exilis is known from several eggshell fragments collected at Little Diablo's Hill at Devil's Coulee, southern Alberta.
[1] The outer surface of its eggshell exhibits what is called dispersituberculate ornamentation, i.e. the shell is covered with randomly distributed nodes.
[1] Since no embryos of D. exilis are known, it is impossible to determine with certainty whether it was laid by a bird or a non-avian theropod.
[1] However the sculpted outer surface of Dispersituberoolithus's shell is unlike bird eggs, and since some non-avian dinosaurs are known to have a three-layered eggshell, the presence or absence of the external zone cannot be reliably used to distinguish avian eggs from non-avian.
