Total: 1,076 works in 5,048 fascicles and 480 wrappers (The reason the count of Mahāyāna sūtra works here admitted to the canon differs from the number in the previous extensive catalogue is that the various texts of the Mahāratnakūṭa-sūtra were formerly combined into one work, so in their original count they were 49 works in the catalogue above, whereas here they are combined into one work, thus causing a difference of 48 fewer).

The above was prohibited in the Kaiyuan Catalogue. Now, having been re-examined, it is entered in accordance with imperial decree into the Zhenyuan Catalogue of Buddhist Teachings.
Also, the Continuation of the Kaiyuan Catalogue of Buddhist Teachings [compiled] in this land, in 1 work and 3 fascicles, entered into the Zhenyuan Catalogue of Buddhist Teachings in accordance with imperial decree.
Also, catalogues compiled in this land, 1 work in 30 fascicles (entered into the Zhenyuan Catalogue of Buddhist Teachings according to precedent).

The above constitutes the twenty-eighth fascicle.
Catalogue of canonical entries for the Mahāyāna, upper section (Mahāyāna sūtras, vinaya, and śāstras total 763 works, 2,958 fascicles, in 267 cases; this directly lists the titles of the sūtras and marks the number of sheets, the rest being as in the detailed catalogue)
Mahāyāna sūtras (686 works, 2,745 fascicles, in 220 cases)

1,256 works,
comprising 5,378 fascicles, in 509 cases. The discrepancy between the number of works of Mahāyāna sūtras currently in the canon and the previous detailed catalogue is that earlier, the various texts of the Mahāratnakūṭa-sūtra were combined,
so the original count of 49 works was preserved in recording it above, whereas here they are combined into a single work, and therefore it lacks 48; hence the difference.
The above constitutes the thirtieth fascicle.
