candra (2.174) and Kedāra (Vṛttaratnākara 3.55) has na-bha-ja-ra Ganas and is also called Mattakokila by Jayakirti (2.133).
V. 66: Our commentator spells the word as Praharaṇakalikā like Jayakirti 2.173 and Ratnamañjūṣā 6.22.
V. 68 Our author does not mention the Yati after the 7th letter in this metre as is done by others. Pingala calls it Candravartā and Ratnamañjuṣā calls it Candravartman.
V. 69
The metre Tonaka seems to be known to the Jain Tradition only: it is mentioned by Hemacandra 2.254 and Svayambhu 1.16.

V. 76 Aśvagati is otherwise called Aśvakrāntā by Virahańka (VJS., 3.32-33), Padmamukhi by Jayakīrti (JK. 2.199), Sangata by Hemacandra (2.265) and Nila by Prakṛta Paingala 2.170.

V. 97 Only Bharata (16.103-104) and Hemacandra (2.367) mention this metre, besides our author.
V. 103 The ms. clearly reads mālāvittam in both the text and the commentary. Hemacandra calls it Mäläcitra at 2.381. Malāvṛtta of Jayakirti (2.266) is different
V. 104: The name Seṣa Jāti must have been applied to all metres which were lomger than the metres of the Utkṛti class, till the adoption of the Dandaka into the fold of the Sanskrit Varna Vṛttas.

V. 105: The early Dandaka seems to have been characterized by the Ragana (SIS). Virahānka mentions only one Daṇḍaka where after the initial 6 short letters, 10 Raganas are used in each of its four Padas:
