Colossoemys is the nomen dubium of an extinct genus of alligatoroid crocodilian. Based on fossils found in the Solimões Formation, the finds were assigned to Emys macrococcygeanus, a turtle that would have inhabited the Amazon Basin South America during the Pleistocene epoch. The genus was originally named on the basis of two large procoelous vertebrae, a pubis, and a plastral fragment (likely to be from a turtle rather than a crocodilian). The paucity of material associated with the genus has led Colossoemys to be considered a nomen dubium.

- O Colossoemys é um gênero extinto de crocodiliano aligatoróide. Habitava a América do Sul durante a época do Pleistoceno. O gênero foi originalmente nomeado com base em duas grandes vértebras procélicas, uma púbis e um fragmento plastral (que provavelmente pertenceria mais à uma tartaruga do que a um crocodiliano). A escassez de material associado ao gênero levou o Colossoemys a ser considerado um possível nomen dubium no passado. (pt)
