This is a complete facsimileof this famous work, which contains in its present state more plantillustrations than its counterpart at Vienna (Codex Vindobonensis med.gr. 1), that is 403 out of some originally 433 or 435. The illustrationsin the Index Neapolitanus are halfpage, covering the upper half of thepage, while the lower half of the pages is offering the correspondingtext. The text in the Codex Neapolitanus seems to be more complete andmore carefully edited.
