173 Compare Su.Sū.46 on fishes. Cakrapāṇi only deals with river fishes according to Śivadāsasena, who remarks that those from the sea are less important as dietary items; this may be an error, for the kulīśa is a marine fish in the Suśrutasaṃhitā. See on Indian fishes in Graeco-Roman sources: K. Karttunen (1997): 216–217.
