The '''Thesaurus''' is a [[Slimosaur]] that serves [[Bowser]] in [[Dinosaur Dilemma]]. It is a pun on a [[wikipedia:Thesaurus|thesaurus]], which describes a collection of words with similar meanings, and "-saurus", a common suffix for dinosaurs. It attacks [[Mario]] and [[Yoshi]] with a group of other Slimosaurs after they defeat the [[Times-Square-atops]]. It is described as resembling the shape of a bookcase (as thesauri are often published as books) and knowing 367 ways of attacking. If Mario has a [[Super Star]], he uses it to dash between the Thesaurus' feet and avoid its attacks. Yoshi, meanwhile, was eating the nails off of a spice rack until it fell, causing a cloud of chili pepper to envelop the room; the Thesaurus soon starts sneezing before violently exploding. The room's occupants are then coated in a yellow-and-green dino-goo, including [[Gary Koopa]], [[C. Everett Koopa]], [[Francis Ford Koopola]], [[James Fennimore Koopa]], and the rest of the Snowbell Prize committee, who entered the room after hearing the commotion. If Mario does not have a Super Star, the Thesarus relentlessly beats him up (while the narration uses a variety of words to describe the action, as per a thesaurus' use) until a [[Game Over]] appears.
