Eggella is a small basaltic to basaltic andesite shield-like volcano on the flank of the Pleistocene Chavycha shield, west of the axis of the southern Sredinny Range. A chain of small cones on the E flank trends NE-SW. Early geological studies in the Sredinny Range (Ogorodov et al., 1972) assigned Holocene ages based on morphology, but later work noted that these volcanoes appear younger because they have less tephra cover than those in eastern Kamchatka. Researchers such as Ponomareva et al. (2007) do not consider this volcano to be Holocene.
