Secondary Rainbows are the rainbows that are reflected twice inside of the rain drop.They have the colors reversed and appear next to the primary rainbow.

Spurious or Supernumerary bows are faint color arcs that sometimes seen next to the primary or secondary bow, due to interference. In this picture you can see the supernumary as the blue hue underneath the bright primary rainbow.

Fogbows or white rainbows arepale circles of light that are sometimes seen in clouds and fogbanks.

Lunar Rainbows are formed when the moon emits white light that raindrops can refract and reflect into the atmosphere. Moonlight is much fainter than sunlight so a lunar rainbow is not very bright. This also appears as a white arc because we lose our light sensitivity at night so we cannot distinguish color.
