Description
The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 297 parchment leaves (16.5 cm by 13.5 cm) with some lacunae (Mark 4:41-5:14; Luke 3:16-4:4; John 20:3-21:25). The text is written in one column per page, in 18 lines per page.[2]
The text is divided according to numbers of the κεφαλαια (chapters) at the margin, the τιτλοι (titles) at the top of the pages. There is also a division according to the smaller Ammonian Sections, but it does not contain references to the Eusebian Canons.[3]
It contains tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel. Lectionary markings were added at the margin by a later hand.[3][4]

Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Caesarean text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the Ια.[5] Kurt Aland the Greek text of the codex did not place in any Category.[6]
According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual family Kx in Luke 1 and Luke 20. In Luke 10 no profile was made.[5]
History
Wiedmann and J. G. J. Braun collated portions of the manuscript for Scholz (1794-1852).[4] The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz.[7] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1886.[3]
The manuscript is currently housed at the Biblioteca Marciana (Gr. I. 11) in Venice.[2]
