The description of Calci 11 at Manus suggests it is a complete copy of Burchard but without the arbor consanguinitatis. According to the SISMEL description, the codex contains a copy of Burchard, with the council of Seligenstadt, followed by Excerpta canonum on fol. 193rb-204vb

The only digital images available online (fol. 1r and 2r) suggest the codex opens with Burchard's preface and a capitulatio for all 20 book of the Liber decretorum

Note that Kéry, Collections apparently refers to the manuscript under both its current and the former shelfmark:

  • On p. 75, "Firenze, BML, Calci 11" is mentioned for Hibernensis (sic) excerpts on fol. 181-183; note that this shelfmark is not in the manuscript index.
  • "Calci, Archivio delle Certosa Monumentale, 9" is in Pokorny's list of Burchard manuscripts (Kéry, Collections p. 138) and mentioned as similar to the Lucca Burchard (pp. 139, 147).
