վṛṣṭa (विमृष्�) refers to �(that which is) discriminated [=considered?]� (as opposed to Avimṛṣṭa-vidheyāṃśa—‘having predicate factor not discriminated �), according to Mammaṭa-Bhaṭṭa’s Kāvyaprakāśa verse 7.50-51.—The ṣa (or “poetic defects�) are regarded as undesirable elements [of a composition]. Any element which tends to detract the poetic composition is a demerit in general terms. In other words, ṣa are the opposites of the ṇālṃk. [...] In the Sāhityadarpaṇa, Viśvanātha says ṣa are five fold. [...] Mammaṭabhaṭṭa says that 貹岹ṣa (or “defects of word�) are of sixteen types [i.e., ṛṣṭa-ṃśa (having predicate factor not discriminated)].
