Spinosaurus itself probably made heavier use of senses like vision or the mechanoreceptors on the tip of its snout, like those used by crocodilians to sense prey moving in the water. [12] Skeleton mounted as attacking an anhanguerid pterosaur, National Museum of Rio de Janeiro
Reconstructed skeleton in National Geographic Museum. Gimsa and colleagues (2015) suggest that the dorsal sail of Spinosaurus was analogous to the dorsal fins of sailfish and served a hydrodynamic purpose. [59]

In 1944, towards the end of World War II, the vast majority of Stromer's fossil collection—including the only known (though incomplete) skeletons of Spinosaurus and Aegyptosaurus—was destroyed when the museum in which it was held in Munich was bombed by the British Royal Air Force during a raid.
[16] [17] In 1934, Stromer referred a partial skeleton also from the Bahariya Formation to a new species of Spinosaurus; [18] the specimen has since been alternatively assigned to another African spinosaurid, Sigilmassasaurus. [19] In 1983, a relatively complete skeleton was excavated from the Smokejacks pit in Surrey, England.
Reconstructed skeleton of the spinosaurine Irritator, mounted at the National Museum of Nature and Science, Tokyo. In 2012, Allain and colleagues assigned Ichthyovenator to the Spinosauridae; more precisely to the subfamily Baryonychinae in a basal position as the sister taxon of a clade formed by Baryonyx and Suchomimus.
