Verses of the Abhidharmakośa-śāstra, one fascicle, translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka master Paramārtha under the Chen (Second translation)
The above has had two translations; one is extant and one is lost.
Root Text of the Abhidharmakośa-śāstra, sixteen fascicles, translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka master Paramārtha under the Chen
According to the Abhidharmakośa root text, it is the preceding verses; now it is stated again as the Root Text of the Śāstra in sixteen fascicles, the reason for which is unclear.
Abhidharma-hṛdaya, sixteen fascicles (or thirteen fascicles), translated by the Kashmir Tripiṭaka master Saṅghadeva under the Fu Qin (First translation)
Saṃyuktābhidharma-hṛdaya, thirteen fascicles, translated by the śramaṇa Faxian together with Buddhabhadra under the Eastern Jin (Second translation)
Saṃyuktābhidharma-hṛdaya, thirteen fascicles (the root text was ten fascicles, continued to completion in thirteen fascicles; or fourteen fascicles), translated by the foreign śramaṇa Īśvara and others under the Song (Third translation)
(The Changfang Catalogue says: During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Song, the foreign śramaṇa Īśvara translated it up to the 'Selection Chapter', where obstruction arose, and being unable to finish, he halted. Later, Guṇavarman continued the translation, totaling thirteen fascicles; see the Biographies of Eminent Monks. In the Changfang Catalogue, Īśvara's and Guṇavarman's versions are each preserved separately. The Tang Neidian Catalogue and the Translation Charts agree with this. Now, because Guṇavarman merely continued what had previously been missing and did not translate it anew, preserving both before and after is not appropriate by principle; they are now combined into one text. As for its fourth translation currently in circulation, the Changfang Catalogue says: During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Song, the Indian śramaṇa Saṅghavarman arrived at Jianye in the tenth year of Yuanjia; he was well versed in the Vinayapiṭaka and understood the Saṃyuktābhidharma-hṛdaya. Huiguan of Daochang Temple, seeing that Varman had a subtle understanding of the Saṃyuktābhidharma-hṛdaya and recited it fluently, and that although previous Tripiṭaka masters had translated it, there had been no time to write it down, requested a retranslation. Baoyun translated the words, and Huiguan himself took it down brush in hand, completing it in one cycle. Thus we know that the currently circulating version is this later text).
The above has had four translations; one is extant and three are lost.
Tridharmaka-śāstra, two fascicles (also called Tridharmaka, without the word "śāstra"), translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka master Dharmanandin under the Fu Qin (First translation)
The above has had two translations; one is extant and one is lost.

Śāstra on the Causes and Conditions of Subhadra, two fascicles, translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka master Yaśogupta and others under the Yuwen clan of the Northern Zhou (Sole translation)
