In the twelfth Manvantara, when Rudrasāvarṇi (Rudrasavarni) or Ṛtasāvarṇi (Ritasavarni) would be Manu, ruler of the Manvantara, gods would be divided into several gaṇa(s) (genus), and Harita will be one major gaṇa among them. Apāṁśu (Apamsu) was one of the gods belonging to this Harita gaṇa. However, in Vāyupurāṇa (Vayupurana), Apa and Aṃśu (Amsu) have been separately mentioned as two gods. Since the number of gods belonging to Harita gaṇa was ten, so it appears that the reading ‘Apāṃśu’ is right.
