Notes

Auctarium F.6.26 (Summary Catalogue no. 28153; Coxe Misc. no. 120).  Paper, fourteenth or fifteenth century (Moore, p. 733, says fifteenth), 405 folios.  Miscellany of grammatical and oratorical works, proverbs and sayings, works on Adam & Eve, &c.

For detailed list of contents, see Coxe's entry in the Bibliography. Barbour & Wilson in their 1969 revision give Madan's Summary Catalogue number and make the following changes:
§18 Cedreni > Codini
§19 fol. 228b > 238b.

We give a link in Online Resources to the entry in Coxe's catalogue, though unfortunately information for fols. 74v to 157 or 158 are covered by information for Cod. Misc. 119, and the Google Books workers apparently scanned the page only once.

244v-246v  Psellus, On Why Angels Have Wings (TLG 2702.013, no. 38; Iter Psellianum no. 704 (THE.161) and such questions; cf. Vat. Palat. gr. 209 (our WEST.VAT.1.59)).

247r/v  Probatio pennæ: ciconia vel sim (247r) et manus (247v).
