"Bielu" 別錄.
This source is supposed to date to the Liu Song 劉宋 (420-478). The same title is given as one of the lost sources Fei Changfang refers to. Demiéville (1954): 345 n. 1 says that in Fei Changfang (LDSBJ) Bie lu 別錄 usually refers to this text, but it can also refer on occasion to the catalogue of Zhi Mindu 支愍度. Storch (2014): 5 suggests that the use of "bie lu" in titles of Chinese bibliographies imitated the catalogue of the same title by Liu Xiang 劉向 (77-6 BCE), and translates the title "Subject Catalogue". Storch 41 gives a table summarising its structure (Table 2). See also Bagchi (1927): xli, who remarks [apparently on the assumption that our reports of its supposed contents in later works are accurate], "le catalogue ne semble pas avoir été composé de documents sûrs".
