81 Ṛṣiśṛṅga is by some (eds. e and i) regarded as identical with Ṛṣyaśṛṅga. The *Pāradasamhitā* (1.101) reads Ṛṣyaśṛṅga instead of Ṛṣiśṛṅga; editions d and h read Ṛṣi and Śṛṅga. Ṛṣiśṛṅga is called Kriyātantrasamuccayin, which probably means that he wrote the *Kriyātantrasamuccaya*; ed. h considers Śṛṅga as the author of the *Kriyātantrasamuccaya*. The *Pāradasamhitā* reads Vāsudeva before Kriyātantrasamuccayin, which makes Vāsudeva its author. G. Hāldār (Vṛddhatrayī 303–305) refers to Ṛṣyaśṛṅga as the author of a rasagrantha called *Ṛṣyaśṛṅgatantra* (see Kavīndrācāryasūcipatram Nr. 972: *Ṛṣiśṛṅgatantra*).
