Sinai, St. Catherine's Monastery, Cod. gr. 108. No diktyon: 58483.
s. XIV | Paper, 6 ff., 141 × 87 mm, 2 col., 66 lines per page. |  Minuscule (Microscopic script). | Scribe: Κασσία (Nun, 14th c.)  VGH 231. | Owner: Ιωάσαφ τοῦ Ἁγίου ὄρους Σινᾶ  VGH 216 (Wrongly identified as a scribe, cf. Politis, p. 22).
The manuscript consists of six folios containing the Psalms (1-151) written in two columns, in a very small-sized script. The Psalter has been incorrectly called Cassianum. Its Scribe, Κασσία (14th c.) has been confused with Κασσία nun and hymnographer of the 9th c. PMBZ 3637 (“Psalterium quod falso vocant Cassianum”, Gardthausen p.22).
