An arahant. He was once a vijjādhara, and, having seen the Buddha Sumedha flying through the air, offered him three flowers which remained suspended above the Buddha's head.

 

He was reborn as a deva in a palace in Tāvatimsa called Kanikāra (Ap.ii.441ff).

 

He is probably identical with Uttara Thera. ThagA.i.241.
