Sūtra on the Names of the Thousand Buddhas of the Bhadrakalpa (Xianjie qianfo ming jing), one fascicle (lost translation under the Later Han; Fei Changfang says there are only the Buddha names, which differ from the thousand Buddha names of the Catursatya-sūtra translated by Zhu Tanwulan).
The above single list of Buddha names is extracted from the Bhadrakalpika-sūtra. A different translation whose text is missing.

Sūtra on the Samādhi of Pure Deliverance (Jingdu sanmei jing), one fascicle
Translated by Tanyao, Overseer of the Office of Buddhist Affairs under the Northern Wei; 4th translation.
The above four scriptures are different translations of the same text, and all are missing. (In the catalogue of texts entered into the canon under the Great Zhou, there is a three-fascicle Jingdu sanmei jing; upon examining its language, it is crude and shallow, its principles are contradictory, and it involves human fabrication, so that it can hardly be accepted as a sacred scripture. Therefore, it is relegated to the catalogue of suspected works, while the authentic scripture is sought elsewhere).
Sūtra of Mindful Thought (Siyi jing), one fascicle (also called Yi jing [Advantage Sūtra])
Translated by the śramaṇa Yan Fodiao of Linhuai under the Later Han; 1st translation.
Sūtra of Beneficial Intent (Yiyi jing), one fascicle
Translated by Tripiṭaka Master Kang Daohu of the Eastern Jin; 2nd translation.
The above two scriptures are different translations of the same text, and both are missing. (The catalogues of Fei Changfang and others all state that the nun Sengqu of the Southern Qi translated a two-fascicle Yiyi jing, which is mostly an error handed down by cataloguers. In the final years of the Southern Qi, the daughter of Jiang Mi, Doctor of the National Academy, became a nun at an early age and took the name Sengqu. With her eyes closed, she recited from memory twenty-one works, totaling thirty-five fascicles, among which was a three-fascicle Yiyi jing. Fei Changfang considered that there was a foundation of prior habituation and entered it into the orthodox catalogue. The various catalogues, however, placed it among the apocrypha because it was not translated from an Indic text. Preserving this single scripture would likely run contrary to principle. Her name was sometimes recorded as Sengquni [Nun Sengqu] and sometimes as Nisengqu, with the word ni placed above or below, which caused this confusion. Sengyou was a man of the Southern Qi, yet his catalogue does not record it, whence we know that the various catalogues are all mistaken. In the Great Zhou catalogue of works entered into the canon, there is a two-fascicle Yiyi jing; upon examining its text and doctrine, it also involves human fabrication. At the start of the lower fascicle, there is about a leaf and a half of text that is completely identical in phrasing to the preceding fascicle. Moreover, the Bodhisattva Yiyi twice receives prophecies, but the names and lands differ and do not agree. There are no such occurrences in any other scriptures. Therefore, it is categorized in the suspected class to seek the authentic scripture further).
