DescrizioneHoughton Swi 607.23 - Ouresiphoítes helveticus, fig X.jpg	English: Illustration (fig. X) depicting a mythical "Alpine dragon" from Ouresiphoítes helveticus, sive Itinera per Helvetiæ alpinas regiones facta..., 1723, by Johann Jakob Scheuchzer (1672-1733), illustration to p. 385. It was a four-footed dragon with a catlike face and a crest (German: Haarbusch) on top, and a tail 3 ells long. Encountered by Andreas Roduner ca. 1660 on Wangserberger mountain.[1][2][3][4] It is only one of many unspecified dragons (draco) of the Swiss Alps treated in the original sources (J. J. Wagner and Scheuchzer), but Meurger & Gagnon 1988, p. 266 counts it as an example of Stollenwurm/Tatzelwurm.[5]
