564 Absent from G. Hāldār’s list. 565 Mentioned in a list of *Samgrahas*, i.e., therapeutic compendia. 566 A commentator on the *Suśrutasamhitā*. Absent from G. Hāldār’s list. 567 A commentator on the *Carakasamhitā*. Not mentioned by G. Hāldār. 568 Not mentioned by D.Ch. Bhattacharyya and G. Hāldār. 569 One of the two quotations consists of eight verses on the purification of sulphur. Umāpati’s *Rasāyana* may be the work consulted by Niścala. 570 Rāḍhādideśayogas against amlapitta are quoted. 571 The tantrāntaras quoted are the treatises of Cakṣuṣyeṇa and Hārīta. 572 These verses are from a tantrāntara used by Candraṭa. 573 Two quotations from a tantrāntara used by the author of the *Vaidyapradīpa*. 574 These verses are from a tantrāntara used as a source by Candraṭa. 575 These verses are from a tantrāntara used by Candraṭa. 576 Verses of the *Cakradatta* borrowed from an unspecified tantrāntara are: kṣudraroga 23; mukharoga 8 and 51; rasāyana 160 and 166. 577 This treatise may be identical with the *Bṛhattantrapradīpa*, as already suggested by G. Hāldār (Vṛddhatrayī 53). 578 Absent from G. Hāldār’s list. 579 Prescriptions are cited. The term ekāṇḍa is explained in the quotation ad vṛṣya 55. 580 Not a *ṭippaṇī* of Cakra. A *Naradattaśisyaṭippaṇī*? P.V. Sharma (1993: Intr. 18) regards it as a *Candraṭaṭippaṇī*. 581 Compare *Cikitsākalikā*. 582 A commentary on the formula of bṛhanmāṣataila (vātavyādhi 150–154) is quoted. Although Niścala refers to Trilocana as a rāḍhiyavaidyopādhyāya and prājña, he does not accept his interpretation. NCC VIII, 262: Trilocana, a (vaidya)kāyastha, father of Megha and father of Gadādhara, was the author of the *Vaidyasāra* and *Kalāpapañjī*; he lived in the eleventh century. Niścala once associates the *Vaidyaprasāra* with Gadādhara (ad jvara 256–257). 583 Not mentioned by G. Hāldār. 584 A school of interpretation of the *Carakasamhitā*. 585 Not mentioned by G. Hāldār. 586 Cakra borrowed nāḍīvraṇa 5 from Ugrasena. 587 Ujjvala is a lexicographer, quoted in Mallinātha’s commentary on the *Meghadūta* (CC I, 62). Absent from G. Hāldār’s list. 588 A distinguished physician (P.V. Sharma, 1993: Intr. 15). D.Ch. Bhattacharyya (1947b: 139): Śivadāsasena calls him a distinguished physician (antaraṅga); he should not be confused with Umāpatidhara (twelfth century) or with Umāpati, the grammarian of the Kalāpa school (fourteenth century). G. Hāldār (Vṛddhatrayī 54) that Umāpati was one of the courtiers of Lakṣmaṇasena is based on a confusion with Umāpatidhara. 589 Ascribed to Ātreya (?), quoted by Āṣādhavarman; a quotation in prose. Absent from G. Hāldār’s list (Vṛddhatrayī 52–56). 590 G. Hāldār (Vṛddhatrayī 54) mentions a *Sūkṣmasamhitā*. 591 A work of Bhavyadatta. 592 A work of Bhavyadatta. 593 Mādhavakara’s *Vaidyaprasāra* is quoted (vaidyaprasāre mādhavakaro muniś ca). A variant reads vaidyasāre govardhano mādhavakaro gopatiś ca.
