Kem Kem Caudal Vertebrae

[Bguild]

Hi friends - I recently acquired a theropod caudal vertebrae from the Kem Kem over in Morocco. It’s currently ID’ed as Theropoda sp. indet. and that’s probably about as specific as we can get. But I was curious if the brain trust here had any further details I’m missing that could give away a specific species of theropod. Thanks for taking a look!

Looks Spinosaurid lets see what @LordTrilobitehas to say.

 

BTW : Vertebra, singular

           Vertebrae, plural

Yup.
Looks like spinosaurid mid caudal vertebra. Fairly nice one too. The edge of the centrum seems to have some minor repair.
Good piece.
