(3) *Āpiśali* (VI.1.91). He was an important predecessor of Pāṇini. Patañjali refers to his students in the compound *Āpiśala-Pāṇinīya-Vyāḍīya-Gautamīyāḥ*, stating that these names were arranged in a chronological sequence (VI.2.36; III.125). The *Kāśikā* records that Āpiśali's treatise dealt with long and short vowels (*Āpiśaly-upajñaṁ gurulāghavam*, VI.2.14).
