After they were extricated from the rock in which they were found, Dr. Koch purchased the fossils for the St. Louis Museum. The fossils were shown to Yale chemist Benjamin Silliman, likely before being rearranged by Koch. Silliman, who had recently lectured on the basilosaurus, wrote a letter to Koch about his find. A broadside promoting the exhibit took Sillimans letter out of context and presented the hydrarchus as Leviathan of the Antediluvian World.

The hydrarchos continued to be displayed and was taken by Koch to Dresden, where it was destroyed by
