The Ugraparipṛcchā 郁伽長者 T310(19) is ascribed to Kang Sengkai 康僧鎧 in the Taishō, but Schuster discusses it as a translation by *Dharmamitra 曇摩蜜多. Schuster’s basis for this is the fact that the text is ascribed to *Dharmamitra in KYL, and “conclusive arguments of Japanese scholars”, as summarised by Hirakawa Akira, “Shoki daijō kyōdan ni okeru toji ni imi,” Shūkyō kenkyū 153 (1957), p. 26.

The 菩薩訶色欲法經 T615 is inspired by Canto VIII of the Saundarananda of Aśvaghoṣa, vv. 31-35. It is very short (nineteen lines), and lacks the opening and closing formulae characteristic of sūtras, so that it looks like an excerpt taken from another text.
