Ebirah
Ebirah (Japanese: エビラ, Hepburn: Ebira) is a kaiju film monster taking the form of an enormous monstrous lobster. The name Ebirah is a portmanteau of the Japanese word for "shrimp" or "lobster" (蝦, ebi) and the -ra ending often appended to the names of kaiju monsters, such as Mothra, Hedorah, Ghidorah, etc. and Godzilla himself (Jp: Gojira).
