Gojirasaurus (meaning "Godzilla Lizard") is a dubious genus of dinosaur named after the giant monster movie character Gojira (the Japanese name for Godzilla). It was discovered in the Bull Canyon Formation (Dockum Group of Norian age, near Revuelto Creek, Quay County, New Mexico). The type specimen is a partial skeleton, estimated to be about 5.5 m (18 ft) long, which can be extrapolated to a weight of approximately 150–200 kg (330–440 lb). It lived during the middle Norian age of the late Triassic Period, about 210 million years ago.
