Yes that is right, the images are from the Thesarus of Seba. Many pieces here, such as Reincken's An Wasserflüssen Babylon, are as much as a compendium of known compositional and rhetorical techniques of the day, as Seba's thesarus was for flora and fauna.
This is a grandeur that I cannot imagine myself.
