The collection today normally known as the Collectio Dionysiana adaucta has been known under various names in scholarship. This mainly reflects disagreement whether it is an augmented form of the Dionysiana (Ballerini, Wurm, Mordek) or the Collectio Dionysio-Hadriana (Maassen, Fowler-Magerl). This also explains some of the uncertainties which manuscripts should be seen as copies of this collection.
The compiler seems to have known and been influenced by very early translations of the Greek councils. Both the copy in the Ms Vat. lat. 5845 (early 10th century, Capua) and the copy in the Ms Vercelli, Biblioteca Capitolare, LXXVI (10th century, Vercelli) have the inscription for the canons of Sardica found in the Corpus canonum Africano-Romanum: Regulae Niceni concilii XX episcoporum quae in Graeco non habentur sed in Latino inveniuntur. The Vercelli manuscript was used in the 10th century by Atto of Vercelli for his own collection.
For 872 as the (generous) t.a.q. see Maassen p. 465.
According to Maassen, Geschichte p. 462 this Dionysio-Hadriana version is closely related to the Collectio Vaticana in Vat. lat. 1342.
