Nope, it did not. An anatomical desription, and a test of its phylogenetic position in the Carrano et al. 2002 and Rauhut 2003 matricies: in the former, the sister taxon to _Coelophysis_+_Megapnosaurus_, in the latter a trichotomy with those two.

As a footnote to this... given that recent studies have tended to assign _Megapnosaurus rhodesiensis_ to _Coelophysis_, the La Boca coleophysoid could probably be regarded as a species of _Coelophysis_. According to the aforementioned topologies, anyway.

Cheers
