“…In addition to tooth morphology, the taphonomy of Spinosaurus teeth has been used as evidence for an aquatic lifestyle. Beevor et al (2020) demonstrate that the teeth of this dinosaur are among the most commonly recovered remains in a pair of localities of differing lithologies in the fluvial portion of the Kem Kem Group of Morocco. Spinosaurid teeth are among the numerically dominant fossils at this site (rivaled only by remains of the sawfish Onchopristis and, at one site, ornithocherid pterosaur skeletal elements).…”

“…The recent discovery of new and much more complete material has brought new data and with it new hypotheses about the biology of this animal (Ibrahim et al, 2014a(Ibrahim et al, , 2020a. Based on new finds, it has more recently been suggested that Spinosaurus was an aquatic specialist (Ibrahim et al, 2014a, 2020a, Arden et al, 2019Beevor et al, 2020) and pursuit predator of aquatic prey (Ibrahim et al, 2020a). This stands in stark contrast to previous interpretations of spinosaurid biology and, if correct, would mark out Spinosaurus (and potentially other spinosaurines) as having a unique ecology for a nonavialian theropod.…”

“…Beevor et al [28] showed evidence supporting a high abundance of Spinosaurus teeth in comparison with other Theropods in some sites in Morocco. We could qualitatively relate this information with the results of Figure 3, for the reason that a high aquatic enrichment yields a high equilibrium density of Spinosaurus.…”

“…Probably for these specializations to catch fish and also having a broad diet, Spinosaurus was highly abundant in comparison to other top predators in some sites [28].…”

“…Spinosauridae is a clade of large, specialized tetanuran theropods that was widely distributed during the Cretaceous (Hone and Holtz 2017). Recent years have seen intense scientific interest in spinosaurid fossils from the Cenomanian (Upper Cretaceous) Kem Kem Group of eastern Morocco (Ibrahim et al 2020a), with new material fuelling numerous investigations into the morphology and palaeobiology of these spectacular giant theropods (Ibrahim et al 2014;Evers et al 2015;Hendrickx et al 2016;Gimsa et al 2016;Henderson 2018;Maganuco and Dal Sasso 2018;Arden et al 2019;Lakin and Longrich 2019;Heckeberg and Rauhut 2020;Ibrahim et al 2020b;Smyth et al 2020;Beevor et al 2021;Hone and Holtz in press). Most of the known spinosaurid material from the Kem Kem Group consists of isolated elements, often collected without precise geological context, although one associated partial skeleton was recently described (Ibrahim et al 2014;Ibrahim et al 2020b).…”
