notes:
The snake at right is possibly the same as that identified by Nieremberg as "Mater formicarum, sive tzicatlinan," a coral snake. The snake in the middle resembles the so-called "feathered serpent" of the Aztec or Mexican people. The snake at left is a rattlesnake, Teuthlacokauhqui or voogdesse der stangen. Scientific name of the baboon is Papio ursinus. The animal identified as Papio 2 resembles Nieremberg's three-toed sloth.
