Krishna Yamari (Tib.: shin je she nag po. English: the Black Killer of Death)).

The right holds aloft a blue stick marked with a vajra and the left, a wrathful [gesture] together with a lasso held to the heart, with the same ornaments and appearance as before. Standing above a red buffalo in a manner with the left leg extended." (Konchog Lhundrub, 1497-1557).
