Kapitel	fol.	Kennzeichen	Literatur
I.21		What is found between Cavendum et summopere […] per os dicat Gregorii and Et alibi. Dolens inquit […] diu stare non poterit? The most common texts are: Short version (see editio princeps fol. 3rb): Cur non perpendit, quia benedictio illi in maledictionem converitur. Long version: Cur non videtur, cur non perpenditur [...] fiat hęreticus ordinatur. Et item. Quisquis contra hanc simoniacam […] tantummodo inaniter concupiscit.	Fowler-Magerl, Fine Distinctions pp. 147–149; Fransen, Montpellier p. 306; Fransen, Valeur p. 6; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 22–23, 33
I.23		Is there an addition after c. 23? In the editio princeps fol. 3va, c. 23 ends ... detestatio ne percussus, and c. 24 begins: Quod non oporteat ordinationes episcoporum diu differri. Quoniam quidam metropolitanorum quantum comperimus ne ... In many Italian copies, c. 23 is followed by Si quis episcopus aut presbiter aut abbas per pecuniam […] et sit anathema sicut Simon Magus a Petro?	Fransen, Montpellier p. 306
I.234		Are there additions after the end of book one? Normally, the last canon is c. 234 (Quia vero plurimi episcoporum ex aliis […] est in troadam). Three known additions are: Placet ut in anno bis concilia celebrentur […] assertione promulgabitur (a canon otherwise only known from Collectio XII partium); Erga simoniacos (an excerpt from JL 4431a, normally ending sanctimus) Fraterne mortis (JL †6613a)	Dusil, Wissensordnungen p. 257 n. 258
II.18 to 24		Commonly, c. 23 (De rebus vero illorum vel peculiari) is displaced, so that the sequence of canons is "18, 23, 19-22, 24". See fol. 36r-36v of the editio princeps.	Fransen, Montpellier pp. 301, 307; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 33–34; Gneckow, Abhängigkeiten p. 135
III.15		Is there an addition after c. 15 (see fol. 58r of the editio princeps), namely an excerpt from JE 1317 beginning Pervenit ad me quod and ending per clericorum ambitum destruantur?	Fransen, Montpellier p. 306; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 44–45
End of book III		Is there a synodal order added after book three? The most common one is Schneider's Ordo 5 but there is considerable variety, as Schneider's discussion of the individual ordines makes clear.	Fransen, Valeur pp. 2, 6–7, 14; Schneider MHG Ordines pp. 31-37; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 20, 43; Hoffmann/Pokorny, Dekret pp. 41–45
VIII.38		While "German" copies (and Parma, Biblioteca Palatina, 3777) have the complete chapter, many deteriores break off with cohabitare tecto, followed by spatium or not. Sometimes, the missing text is added by a later hand; sometimes, c. 38 is merged with c. 49, or followed directly by c. 50.	Fransen, Montpellier p. 303–304; Fransen, Valeur pp. 2, 9–10, 19; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 20, 49–53
VIII.49-50		Deteriores copies typically lack cc. 39-48; c. 49 may be incomplete or missing altogether. Sometimes, the two fragmentary canons cc. 38 and 49 are merged into one (grammatically disturbed) canon.	Fransen, Montpellier p. 303–304; Fransen, Valeur pp. 2, 9–10, 19; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 20, 49–53
XII.9		In the deteriores copies, c. 9 ends with similiter peniteat. Sin autem (note that in copies like London, BL, Cotton Claudius C.vi, the sin autem is missing too).	Fransen, Tradition pp. 116–117; Fransen, Valeur pp. 2, 10, 19; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 20, 49–53; Gneckow, Abhängigkeiten pp. 137-138, 155
XII.10-20		Most copies which break off in c. 9 with sin autem also lack cc. 10-20.	Fransen, Tradition pp. 116–117; Fransen, Valeur pp. 2, 10, 19; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 20, 49–53; Gneckow, Abhängigkeiten pp. 137-138, 155
XII.29		The canon is transmitted in a number of variants: The phrase et post paululum is sometimes replaced by other words de iepte discernens What is the wording between asserendi copia profluus and hęc in suis narrat affectibus? What is the wording between in malis promissis rescinde fidem and quod incaute novisti non facias. (One Italian branch here reads eloquentię fructu fecundus).	Fransen, Montpellier p. 304; Fransen, Tradition pp. 116–117; Fransen, Valeur pp. 12–13, 15–18; Hoffmann/Pokorny, Dekret pp. 61, 63–64
XIX.108		In deteriores copies, book 19 ends here.	Fransen, Montpellier pp. 304–305; Fransen, Valeur pp. 2, 10–11, 19; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 20, 49–53
XX.57		In deteriores copies, book 20 ends with c. 57. Sometimes the missing canons are added by a later hand and/or other additions are found here, including JE †1996, JE 1362, and JK 744.	Fransen, Montpellier p. 305; Fransen, Valeur pp. 2, 11; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 20, 49–53
After book 20		The canons of Seligenstadt are found in several Burchard copies, most commonly after the last book of the Liber. Jasper has disinguished two recensions, see his account in MGH Conc. 8.	Rolker, Letters p. 112.- Jasper, MGH Conc. 8 pp. 24-26.
