801 See on hunting in India: J. Auboyer (1961): 131–138; G.V. Bapat (1974–76); E. Hofstetter (1980); R. Krottenthaler (1996). 802 R. Krottenthaler (1996): 126–164. 803 See on kṛṣṇasāra: R. Krottenthaler (1996): 33–34. 804 See on the ruru: R. Krottenthaler (1996): 41–45. 805 C. Suneson (1984: 249) remarks that some of Someśvara’s names are also found in Hemacandra’s Abhidhānacintāmaṇi and Jayadatta’s Aśvavaidyaka. Nakula mentions in his Aśvaśāstra fifty-four types and describes twenty-six of them; see S.S. Misra (1982): 186–188 on the two lists and their differences. See also P.K. Gode (1946f). Godāvara’s list of fifty-four breeds resembles that of Nakula. 806 Their names are devamāṇi, rocamānaka and kaṇṭhāvarta; the rocamāna is also known to Nakula (Aśvaśāstra, āvartādhyāya 32–35). 807 Nakula describes seven and Bhoja five types; see S.S. Misra (1982): 191–192. 808 See S.S. Misra (1982): 192–193. 809 Jayadatta has four, Nakula five varieties. See S.S. Misra (1982): 193–194. 810 See S.S. Misra (1982): 210: a kind of pain in the stomach; it is the same as Jayadatta’s saubhīkṣa. 811 The same as siṃhānaka; see S.S. Misra (1982): 212: a derangement of kapha, in which phlegm flows from the nostrils. 812 See S.S. Misra (1982): 213: a disease in which the whole body becomes stiff. 813 See S.S. Misra (1982): 213: the same as Jayadatta’s vātāṇḍaroga. 814 The same eight forests are referred to in other texts on gajaśāstra and, e.g., in the Hariharacaturaṅga by Godāvaramiśra (see S.S. Misra, 1982: 217). 815 See S.S. Misra (1982): 219–220. 816 The same descriptions, apart from the agnimāruta type, are found in the anonymous Gajaśāstra. 817 See S.S. Misra (1982): 220–224. 818 Partly the same as in the anonymous Gajaśāstra, but more elaborate. 819 See on mud bathing in elephants: G.M. McKay (1973): 48. 820 CC: not recorded. This work by the Gaṅga king Śrīpuruṣa (A.D. 725–776) is mentioned by L. Rice (1917): 245. 821 CC: not recorded. STMI 547: a treatise on the science of horses explaining how certain qualities of a horse are suggested by certain marks on its body. 822 NCC I, 443: by Sukhānanda, son of Valhajiṣṇu, surnamed Jośī; Sukhānanda quotes a Yajñadatta. Check-list Nr. 68. STMI 547: the author refers to Śālihotra and to one Yajñadatta in connection with the age of horses; the Aśvaśāstra is a small treatise on the nature and classification of horses, divided into several chapters, some of which consist of a single stanza only. R. Nambiyar (1950): 129–91 (Serial Nr. 11, Accession Nr. 13213). 823 CC I, 657; II, 157 and 230; III, 136. This late treatise (see A.B. Keith, 1973: 464; P. Neogi, 1914: 33–34; L. Renou in L. Renou et J. Filliozat, 1953: 129; Winternitz III, 531–532) contains material on the science of horses and elephants: 4.7.32cd–42 deals with elephants, 4.7.43–173 with horses and bullocks. See also J.L. Bhaduri, K.K. Tiwari and B. Biswas (1971): 439–440; Edgerton’s Preface to his translation of Nīlakaṇṭha’s Mātaṅgalīlā, 10; S.S. Misra (1982): 195, 201, 214, 218, 224; B.K.
