A new Spinosaurid has been described from Spain's, Arcillas de Morella Formation (upper Barremian) ,  Vallibonavenatrix cani.   Since this Spinosaurid has affinities to those in North Africa and may assist us in identifying material from Morocco.

Is there a copy of this paper I could look at? Given the relationship of Vallibonavenatrix to North African and Brazilian spinosaurs, but also Ichthyovenator, but also the baryonychine nature of Suchomimus, it is apparent that more than one spinosaurid clade existed in western Europe in the early Cretaceous.
