Camarillasaurus was first thought to be a ceratosaur, but later studies showed it is actually a spinosaur, a type of fish-eating dinosaur.1
The only known fossils of Camarillasaurus were found in a small area of about five square metres, all from one individual.2
Its bones were discovered by a farmer named Pedro Cirugeda Buj while ploughing his field.2
Camarillasaurus lived about 130 to 125 million years ago during the Early Cretaceous period.1
This dinosaur is one of several spinosaurs found in Spain, along with Baryonyx and Vallibonavenatrix.1
