Zhongxin Jiang and Toru Tomabechi, The Pañcakramaṭippanī of Muniśrībhadra: Introduction and Romanized Sanskrit Text, Peter Lang (Bern 1996). They say the only information to be found is that contained in the colophon, which tells us he was a monk and pundit of Magadha origins belonging to Jagaddala Monastery. The Tibetan colophon says that the Sanskrit manuscript had formerly been in the possession of Dpyal Lo tsā ba Chos kyi bzang po (contemporary of Śākyaśrībhadra). The existing Sanskrit manuscript was found bundled together with a paper manuscript copied by Vibhūticandra himself. It has a shortened version of the title in Tibetan cursive letters: Rim pa lnga'i 'grel pa rnal 'byor yid 'phrog. Reviewed by J.W. de Jong in Indo-Iranian Journal, vol. 41 (1998), pp. 189-190.
