*Tide Vayu Purana Vol. 1, 59th adhya ya, and Vol. II. 9th adhyaya. +In Vayu Purana Vol. I. 39th adhyaya, Maitravaruna and Kundina are mentioned as
two distinct persons in a list of Rishis which comprises only descendants of Vasishtha. Following the order of their names in the Pravara, Maitravar'una is here made a son and Kundina a grandson of Vasishtha. Purushottama, however, writes that Kundina ras born to Pasishtha.
