[- § 38 Accessory Treatises these may be mentioned, as belonging to the Paniniya school, Bhimasena and Maitreyarakshita. Of Sayana's successors we need only specify Bhattoji and Nagesa, The Dhatupathas belonging to the other grammatical schools will be found in their proper places elsewhere. 53 37. Ganapatha-The Paniniya Ganapatha has not re- ceived from commentators the attention that it merits. Different portions of it, such as nipatas, avyayas, and upasargas have been individually explained by various writers, and Kshirasvamin, as we saw, is reported to have written a Gaṇavritti, which is no longer extant. The only complete work on the Ganapatha is the Ganaratna- mahodadhi, which is a metrical arrangement of the Galas followed by a lucid commentary, both composed by Var- dhamana in A. D. 1140. 38. Lingamuśäsaus.--Besides Ramachandra and Bhattoji, who have embodied the Liñganuśäsana in their Kaumudis and written commentaries upon it, we find mentioned in connection with the Päniniya treatises on genders the names of Harshavardhana, Sabarasvamin and Vararuchi. Of these the first is probably not the same as the cele- brated patron of Bana, while the second may or may not be identical with the great Mimänsäkära. Vararuchi is another name for Katyayana, and even if these be consi- dered as different, so many late and spurious works are assigned to this great name that it well-nigh difficult to determine the genuineness of any one of them. A palm- leaf Ms. at Cambay, dated Samvat 1287 contains a Linga- nusasana by Vamanãcharya, which mentions among its predecessors the works of Vyadi, Vararuchi, Chandra, and Jinendra. This would at least decide for the existence of 1 See note 1 on page 39, above. 2 Cambay, No. 266; au Aff &c. See also Dr. Peterson's
