¹³⁵⁸ Vide Prof. Hazra's paper on Upapurāṇas in ABORI vol XXI. pp. 38-62 at p 49 note His studies in 'Upapurānas, vol I' was read by me while this section was in the Press I have, therefore, been compelled to add only a few matters from this work, mostly in the footnotes. In note 24 p. 13 of his 'Studies' he reiterates that he has collected the names of more than one hundred Upapurāṇas. On pp. 4-13 he sets out 23 sources (six being quotations from Kūrma in different nibandhas) of the lists of Upapurāṇas that exhibit great divergences and chaos Wilson in his Preface to tr. of the Visnu pp. LXXXVI-XCI mentions the varying lists of Upapurāṇas and offers remarks on some of them. The *H of. DH* vol. I. p. 163 gives the names of the 18 Upapurāṇas as contained in the Garuda I 223. 17-20. Hemādri on Vrata (part 1 p. 21) sets out the names of the 18 Upapurāṇas from the Kūrma I. 1. 16-20 (with readings different from those of the printed Kūrma, some of which are rather serious).
