It is proposed that the boundary between the two plates extended West of the Pyrenees, along the Spanish marginal trench to end West of King's trough at a triple point junction. The pole of relative rotation computed within this hypothesis lies near 5°N ; 62°W and the resulting shortening along the Pyrenees is about 50 km dong 45°E.
