Notes The editors of the Biblia Sacra Vulgata reused letters for manuscripts whose contents do not overlap to avoid running out of letters. Manuscripts bearing the same letter do not, as a rule, form a coherent family. This table does not include fragments. The Psalms are treated separately below. Some manuscripts have additional books in the Vetus Latina recension or whose text is otherwise of no use critical use; these are not shown in the "Contents" column.

A number of early manuscripts containing or reflecting the Vulgate survive today. Dating from the 8th century, the Codex Amiatinus is the earliest surviving manuscript of the complete Vulgate Bible. The Codex Fuldensis, dating from around 545, contains most of the New Testament in the Vulgate version, but the four gospels are harmonized into a continuous narrative derived from the Diatessaron.
