I need help to decrypt these two (relied) locality labels from an old collection (housed in a belgian Museum). probably palearctic or Oriental. Attachments:

There is a place called "Krasa" in Cefalonia island (Greece)
Don't know if it could match

Pas trouvé sur Google Map mais ca peut sonner grec...
A moins de connaitre où ce collectionneur a chassé, tu auras du mal à avoir une réponse nette.

Krasa seems to exist too in Russia and Croatia.
Nobody from there ?
the main problem remains "Selos" or something that that.

I'm reading the last word as "Ksara"... but when I search that all I'm finding is a wine company.  |

yes Tom ... Google is not enough (they fonction with a kind of filter today and many information are not available immediately !)

in an old Atlas of 1899 I found a place "Selos" twice,
both times in northern Spain but not in connection with the designation
"Ksara" or "Krasa"
