69 See G. Mukhopādhyāya (1913): 249–250; (1914): plate LXVII. See also K.N. Dave (1985): 350–353. Cakra and Dalhaṇa mention kartarī (a pair of scissors) as a synonym. Cakra’s comments are more elaborate than those of Dalhaṇa. Two varieties of śarāri, a bird with a long beak, were known. The śarāri (skimmer bird) is also mentioned in the Carakasaṃhitā (Sū.27.42). Compare Amarakoṣa 2.5.26.
