note
The Ceratophyrs images in this video from Roy McDiarmid's Smithsonian collection are linked to Seba's drawing of the same species and also back to the green colored misshapen specimen from Linnaeus' collection. Originally the Linnaeus specimen was most probably dried and then rehydrated two hundred years ago.
