Yeah, but S. maroccanus is considered a junior synonym of S. aegyptiacus now
anyway.

Buffetaut-E & M. Ouaja,  2002. A new specimen of Spinosaurus (Dinosauria,
Theropoda) from the Lower Cretaceous of Tunisia, with remarks on the
evolutionary history of the Spinosauridae. BULLETIN DE LA SOCIETE GEOLOGIQUE
DE FRANCE. 173 (5) : 415-421.

Bouaziz et al. (1988) refer teeth from the Albian of Tunisia to S.
aegyptiacus.
Bouaziz, Samir, Eric Buffetaut, Mohamed Ghanmi, Jean-Jacques Jaeger, Michel
Martin, Jean-Michel Mazin, and Tong Haiyan. 1988.  Nouvelle découvertes de
vertébrés fossiles dans l'Albien du Sud tunisien.   [New finds of fossil
vertebrates in the Albian of southern Tunisia.] [in French, with English
summ.]. Bulletin de la Société Géologique de France 4 p. 335-339.

Not sure about the Milner 1998 reference.

Sidleir (1998) refers teeth from the Cenomanian Kem Kem Beds of Morocco to
Spinosaurus.
