Li Channa cites work by Michael Hahn and Demoto Mitsuyo, in which they argue that stories nos. 16 and 44 of the Xian yu jing 賢愚經 T202, viz. two versions of the Mahāprabhāsa story, are based upon Haribhaṭṭa's version. Demoto argues further that stories 16, 17 and 18, which appear in sequence as a single unit in SYM, reflect a narrative scheme which distinguishes them from other chapters of T202, and resembles that of the Jātakamālās of Haribhaṭṭa and Gopadatta.

Note: Li here follows the numbering of the Song, Yuan and Ming editions of T202, which differs from that found in T. In the T numbering, Li is referring to #21, 372a17 ff. (SYM #16); and #49, 421b18 ff. (SYM #44).
