Basilisk
Dalam bestiaries Eropah dan legenda, basilisk adalah reptilia legenda yang terkenal sebagai raja ular dan dikatakan mempunyai kuasa untuk menyebabkan kematian dengan sekilas. Menurut Naturalis Historia Pliny the Elder, basilisk Cyrene adalah ular kecil, "yang tidak lebih dari dua belas jari panjangnya," yang begitu berbisa, ia meninggalkan jejak yang luas racun maut di dalamnya, dan pandangannya begitu juga maut; kelemahannya adalah dalam bau tembaga, yang, menurut Pliny, dilemparkan ke dalam lubang basilisk, yang dikenali kerana semua pokok renek dan rumput di sekitarnya telah dihancurkan oleh kehadirannya.
