Sorin, The Codex Ingolstadiensis, noted as Manuscript α, is never cited in the critical apparatus. The other manuscripts listed, all designated with capital letters, are cited. The Codex Ingolstadiensis must represent a lost manuscript. Müller does not specifically state his methods or intentions. Müller may have been trying to recreate Manuscript α, though he would not be consistent with such a goal in that he sometimes chooses forms that have no manuscript authority. (See Iamesa in Britannia, top of page 91, a recognized error for Tamesa. This would be trying to recreate the autograph, an entirely different goal.) With certainty, the Vaticanus graecus 191 was the primary source for Müller's edition. I do not have a copy of 'Ptolemaios Handbuch der Geographie', but they may be citing name-forms from X that they consider to be the best, with co-ordinates from another recension (perhaps Manuscript U that has maps, not cited by Müller). I would presume that Stückelberger and Graßhoff carefully define their methods and intentions.
