The florilegium in Montecassino, Archivio dell’Abbazia, 372, pp. 149-160 (FM) was compiled in the early eleventh century at San Nicola della Cicogna, a priory of Montecassino, or at Montecassino; it is only known from this manuscript. It draws on the Collectio Hibernensis and the Vatican Collection in Nine Books, and the False Decretals; it has parallels to the Collection in Five Books which according to Reynolds go back to a shared source.

The short dossier contains is clearly monastic in content. It begins with a cleverly selected series of patristic excerpts which address the question of "holy simplicity"; read together, they heavily imply that even Saint Jerome approved of monks studying canon law. It was edited by Reynolds; his edition was the basis for the addition of the florilegium to the database in 2019.
