A megalecithal egg is a type of egg that contains a large amount of yolk, which provides substantial nutritional support to the developing embryo. This term is commonly used in the context of certain species of animals, such as reptiles, birds, and some fish, where the size and nutrient content of the egg facilitate early development before the embryo can rely on other sources of nourishment. The high yolk content often results in a larger egg size compared to other egg types, such as microlecithal or mesolecithal eggs.
