2.11

The catalogue of Sengyou of the Liang states that the anonymous translations from Master Dao'an's catalogue were recorded only by Sengyou, while Changfang and others omitted them all. Sengyou recorded a total of one hundred and forty-two anonymous scriptures from Master Dao'an's catalogue. Now, when examining the other eighty-seven works across the various catalogues, most indicate the translators, or else are extracted texts and excerpts, or biographies and records composed by individuals. Since there is supporting evidence, they have been excised and are not recorded here. Because Dao'an did not designate an era, they are now provisionally appended to the end of the Jin.
