Related for Megillah 1:4

קָרְאוּ אֶת הַמְּגִלָּה בַּאֲדָר הָרִאשׁוֹן וְנִתְעַבְּרָה הַשָּׁנָה, קוֹרִין אוֹתָהּ בַּאֲדָר הַשֵּׁנִי, אֵין בֵּין אֲדָר הָרִאשׁוֹן לַאֲדָר הַשֵּׁנִי אֶלָּא קְרִיאַת הַמְּגִלָּה וּמַתָּנוֹת לָאֶבְיוֹנִים:

If they read the Megillah on the first Adar, and they intercalated the year, they read it on the second Adar. There is no difference between the first Adar and the second Adar but the reading of the Megillah and matanoth la'evyonim alone. [This is what is meant: There is no difference between the fourteenth and fifteenth of the first Adar and the fourteenth and fifteenth of the second Adar but the reading of the Megillah and matanoth la'evyonim, (which obtain on the second and not on the first). But in respect to eulogy and fasting, they are alike (i.e., they are forbidden on both.)]

Tosefta Megillah

If they read the megillah in Adar I and the year was intercalated, they must read it in Adar II because all the mitzvot that are performed in Adar II are performed in Adar I. R' Akiva said in the name of R' Yose in the name of R' Zecharya ben Hakatzav "They need not read it in Adar II because all the mitzvot that are performed in Adar II are not performed in Adar I except for [the restrictions on] eulogy and fasting that are performed in both." Contracts in each month: In [Adar] I, we write "Adar" and in Adar II, it is written "Tinyan [Two]".
