85 Three pure and three mixed types are described, to which three, called antarvarṇa, are added from another source. See on the colours: P.E.P. Deraniyagala (1938): 158.

An independent and very elaborate classification of male elephants is found in the Hastividyārṇava (1–149, pages 12–78), followed by a classification of females (pages 79–96).
