Zmey Gorynych : ウィキペディア英語版
Slavic dragon

In Slavic mythology, the word “zmey” (Bulgarian and Russian: змей, (マケドニア語:змеj)) and its cognates zmiy ((ポーランド語:żmij), (ウクライナ語:змій)) and zmaj ((セルビア語:змај), Croatian, Slovene: zmaj), are used to describe a dragon. These words are masculine forms of the Slavic word for "snake", which are normally feminine (like Russian ''zmeya'').
In Romania, there is a similar figure, derived from the Slavic dragon and named ''zmeu''. In Polish and Belarusian folklore, as well as in the other Slavic folklore, a dragon is also called smok (смок, цмок, smok).
In South Slavic folklore, the female variation is also called lamya (derived from lamia). Although quite similar to other European dragons, Slavic dragons have their peculiarities.
==East Slavic==

In Russia and Ukraine, a particular dragon-like creature, Zmey Gorynych ((ロシア語:“змей Горыныч”) or (ウクライナ語:“змій Горинич”)), has three heads, is green, walks on two back paws, has small front paws, and spits fire. According to one bylina, Zmey Gorynych was the dragon killed by Dobrynya Nikitich.
Other Russian dragons (such as Tugarin Zmeyevich) have Turkic names, probably symbolizing the Mongols and other steppe peoples. Accordingly, St George (symbolizing Christianity) killing the Dragon (symbolizing Satan) is represented on the coat of arms of Moscow. Some prehistoric structures, notably the Serpent's Wall near Kiev, have been associated with dragons as symbols of foreign peoples.
Russian dragons usually have heads in multiples of three. Some have heads that grow back if every single head isn't cut off or the headless neck isn't covered immediately in ash or burnt.
