The codex contains a complete text of the four Gospels on 245 parchment leaves (23.1 cm by 16.5 cm) with only one lacuna (Matthew 1:1-10). The text is written in one column per page, in 25 lines per page.[2]
The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their τιτλοι (titles) at the top of the pages. There is also a division according to the Ammonian Sections (in Mark 233 Sections - 16:8), with references to the Eusebian Canons (written below Ammonian Section numbers).[3]
It contains Prolegomena, Epistula ad Carpianum, tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, and lectionary markings at the end of each Gospel (for liturgical use).[3]
