(Click for a call) Gojirasaurus (meaning "Godzilla lizard") is a potentially dubious genus of coelophysoid theropod dinosaur named after the giant monster movie character Godzilla (Hepburn: Gojira). The composite term Gojirasaurus is derived from the name of the giant Japanese movie monster "Gojira" (Godzilla) and the Greek word "sauros" (σαυρος) meaning "lizard"; thus, "Godzilla lizard".
NOTE: Please take the validity of this dinosaur with a grain of salt. Apparently, its vertebrae was thought to belong to a rausuchian (Shuvosaurus), and the other remains were actually from another coelophysoid. However, the vertebrae's synonymy with Shuvosaurus was apparently rebutted, so it might be valid again. Please also take the appearance with a grain of salt too; its only known from fragmentary remains so I based it off of Coelophysis and Liliensternus. If this is used, give me credit.
