Paris, BnF, lat. 1700 is a sixteenth-century codex of 270 pages. It mainly contains works of Hilary of Poitiers ("Series A" and Collectanea antiariana parisina, ed. Feder, CSEL 65) followed by the Collectio Avellana. According to Schiktanz, the first part is an apograph of Paris, Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal, 483 (saec. IX). As for the Avellana, Günther only came across this late and did not collate it, but on account of significant gaps established that it belonged to a group of seven copies that ultimately go back to a lost defective Avellana copy (Günther, Avellana-Studien p. 79).
