This seems to be the entire ms.

For a full overview of the contents, please see Pinakes (under the online resources) which has an excellent entry on this ms. or Mioni’s print catalogue, listed under the bibliographical information.

Mioni’s catalogue includes one image of f. 235 (see pp. 240-241) but the National Library has not yet digitized this manuscript.

The beautiful illustrations in this ms. (mostly marginal drawings) are well worth a look. These are also listed by Mioni in the catalogue on p. 229. (See bibliography)

WEST.NAP.1.3.
Contents: Photios, Epistolae.
The text begins with epistle 4 (in Westerink’s edition).    
Inc.: Τῆς ὁδοῦ τὸ μῆκος καὶ τῶν ἐχθρῶν ὁ φόβος λακωνίζειν ἡμῖν ὑποτίθεται•
For a fuller list, see Mioni’s catalogue listed under the bibliographical resources.

Pinakes simply lists “44” but this is rather incomplete.

NAP.1.1.
For contents please refer to Mioni's catalogue (under the bibliographical resources) or Pinakes (listed under the internet resources),  

NAP.1.7.
Letters by Photius, Gregory of Cyprus, Procopios of Gaza, Phalaris, and Plato.
