Oh yeah... just another thing I noticed at the top of this thread... Baryonyx and Suchomimus are actually more closely related to one another than either is to Spinosaurus. They're so similar, in fact, that they might even belong to the same genus. So the sister group to Spinosaurus (i.e. the taxon it is most closely related to) is the group containing Baryonyx and Suchomimus.
What's more, some scientists have more recently used a very few characters to group Spinosaurus and Irritator together to form the Spinosaurinae. If this new taxon holds water, that would make Spinosaurus more closely related to Irritator. But as always, we need more fossils to be sure.

I've been studying vert palaeo for years in university (not to mention the years of studying I put in before that). I would hope I might know a bit of dino trivia. :-P

Naw, it's okay. I enjoy answering questions more than I enjoy asking them. But if something comes to mind, I'll post it here.
