Maurya dynasty is listed in the Matsya Purāṇa and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam

The above chapter of the Matsya Purāṇa doesn't list names of the first few kings of the Maurya dynasty and directly mentions Śatadhanvā.

Interestingly, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam lists the names of these kings starting with Candragupta who was enthroned by Kauṭilya all the way up to Śatadhanvā. Bṛhadratha (not to be confused with the father of Jarāsandha) is mentioned as the son of Śatadhanvā in both the Purāṇas.

The names of the Maurya kings after Bṛhadratha are found in the Matsya Purāṇa only. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupāda adds Daśaratha (listed in the Matsya Purāṇa) as the tenth Maurya king in his commentary to verse 12.1.14 of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.

Both the Matsya Purāṇa and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam mention Cāṇakya and state that ten Maurya kings shall rule for 137 years in Kali Yuga.
