Aristotle, De naturis animalium, De partibus animalium, De generatione animalium, trans. Michael Scot, completed by 1220; text not printed in full. See AL 80-81 and 245 where this manuscript is described. The text here is complete: the scribe erroneously repeated the rubric of Book VII on f. 26, thus his calculations at the end of the manuscript were off by one. Marginalia and nota marks by various readers of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.
