Oh, to me there are several... of course B. plumifrons are among my favourites. I still consider the multiple crests and the hypnotizing eye quite dragon like...but maybe they are more close to mini Dinosaurs than to mythycal dragons. Anyhow, to the fish in my largest rainforest tanks they must appear like flying dragons if they jump down from a branch 4 ft above water and still manage to catch a fish with this jump.

Most dragon like appearance? Well, the closest to that I see in the bizarre Harpesaurus species. But also to my mind come frilled dragons, Hypsilurus boydii, Hypsilurus modestus, Phrynocephalus mystaceus, Moloch horridus and Ceratophora species. Of course Gonocephalus (esp. G. klossii) and Acanthosaura are on the list as well. But I can´t decide, which of the list ist the most dragonlike
