Kamacuras is a giant mantis (sometimes a species of mantis) that first appeared in Son of Godzilla.
Showa series
When a United Nations weather control experiment on the Sogell Island accidentally caused a radioactive storm in 1967, the island was doused in a radioactive rainstorm and causing at least three of the island’s already two-meter-long Kamakuras, to mutate into 50-meter monsters. After scarring the United Nations crew for a while, the Kamakuras uncovered and attacked Minya's egg, breaking it open and then proceeding to try and devour Minya. Godzilla, hearing the cries of Minya, arrived on the island and quickly killed two of the Kamakiras with his radioactive heat ray, but one managed to escape. Later, Kumonga, the giant spider, killed the third Kamakiras in battle when he entangled the giant mantis in his webbing and jabbed it with his poison stinger. Thought to have been wiped out by Kumonga on Sogell Island, a Kamakiras later turned up on Ogasawara Island, living in peace with the other monsters.
Millennium series
In the 2004 film, Godzilla: Final Wars, Kamacuras made an appearance as one of the many controlled monsters of a race of superior extraterrestrial beings known as the Xilians. It attacks Paris and is teleported away by an enormous UFO to make it seem as if the Xilians eliminated every kaiju. Eventually, it is discovered that the Xilians were controlling the the monster, who are returned to finish their rampages. When Godzilla begins to battle the monsters, he fights Kamacuras in Japan and wins by throwing the creature onto an electrical power conductor.
