Here's a link to a news story (in Spanish) with a photo of the skull
of a new iguanodont found in a coal mine near Ariño, in Teruel
Province, Spain. As far as I can tell, the formal description has not
been published. However, a recent article (cited on the DML in
September) mentioned the discovery of the Albian-age bonebed. The
species is estimated to be 7.5 to 8 meters long.
