page 186 note 1 Mr. E. Koestermann's recent Teubner edition is careless and unreliable. In the text he repeats all Andresen's six misprints at Hist. i. 33. 2, Ann. i. 68. 3, iv. 30. 2, xi. 30. 2, xii. 10. 1 and 41. 2, and adds modo for modum at Hist. iv. 9. 1 and monumentum for momentum at Ann. xvi. 5.1 together with a dozen others of his own elsewhere. In the apparatus criticus 168 conjectures appear as Mr. Koestermann's, of which 47 are placed in the text. Of this total number of 168 at least twenty-three belong to someone else and restitution should be made as follows: Ann. i. 69. 2 laudes et gratis Halm; ii. 1.1 [Sisenna] Andresen; iii. 18. 1 Iulli Andresen; vi.14. 2 sane Andresen; 37. 3 Tigri Halm; xi. 4 1 et Acidalius; 28. 1 discidium Lallemand; xii. 63. 1 parte Walter; xiii. 55. 3 aspiciens Rhenanus; xiv. 59. 3 cur–timuisti Halm: xvi. 2. 2 in Draeger; Hist. i. 8. 2 elati Lipsius; 31. 1 signa seu Meiser; 37. 5 Helii Halm; 85. 1 parata W. Heraeus; ii. 4. 4. fauor Jacob; 20. 1 tegumen Valmaggi; 82. 2 nec codd. recc.; 84. 2 largitus Rhenanus; iii. 38. 4 foueat Oberlin; 82. 3 diei Lipsius; iv. 25. 3 armatae codd. recc.; Germ. 43. 2 [montium] Andresen. There are also passages where a conjecture of Mr. Koestermann's differs only slightly from one which he does not mention, as Hist. iv. 58. 1 honestam Lipsius honestum K., and Agr. 29. 1 〈sequentis〉 Brotier 〈insequentis〉 K.
Mr. Koestermann makes a mass of other mistakes, some of which I correct thus: Ann. i. 28. 3 si qui alii Lipsius; 44. 5 centurionatus inde exegit J. F. Gronouius; 77. 4 sedarentur Heinsius; ii. 5. 2 uices Acidalius; 8. 1 ausurum not Andresen, for see Walther; iii. 3. 3 Augustae Kritz; 12. 2 sed Ernesti; 46. 2 affluentes Andresen (Ph. W. 1883, 1464); iv. 28. 1 pater oranti filio comparatur Halm; 33. 1 conflata Kiessling; v. 4. 1 esse seni Walther; vi. 5. 2 quae J. Gronouius; 13. 1 e uulgo; xi. 4. 1 ac Pichena; 26. 3 pudoris prodigos Walter; 38. 3 fastidiis or fastidio Ernesti; xii. 25. 2 eundem in Halm; 41. 2 triumphali cum ueste Freinsheim, pueri ed. Spir.; 45. 3 pecunia muiarentur Victorius, Pharasmanen Halm; 46. 3 amissuros Becher; xiii. 6. 3 multa cod. Corb.; 20. 2 si qui Walther; 44. 4 isse Lipsius; 57. 2 [uicta] Agricola; xiv. 33. 2 militare horreum anonymus in Madvig, Adu. crit. iii. p. 234; 36. 2 paucos esse cod. Guelf.; xv. 58. 3 et fortuitus Walther; xvi. 17. 5 addit Agricola; 21. 1 iselasticis Pignorius.
Hist. i. 3. 1 necessitates ipsa necessitate fortiter toleratae J. S. Müller, par cod. rec.; 62. 2 nomine… addito codd. recc.; ii. 24. 3 e cod. Guelf.; 34. 2 insuper codd. recc.; 77. 2 tu ex tuto Gerber; iii. 5. 1 Iazygum Beroaldus; 9. 3 Messala cod. corr. (Ritter); 11. 4 militis J. Gronouius; 13. 3 etiam militem auferre Jacob; 16. 2 in cod. Bud.; 54. 1 uera codd. recc; 78. 1 Saturno Ruperti; iv. 7. 2 Senecione Puteolanus; 46. 3 postremo Agricola; Germ. 2. 3 auditum Lipsius; 30. 1 durantes quidem Gudeman; 36. 2 fracti Hummel; Agr. 10. 3 fama. sed transgressis et Purser; 16. 4 [et] John; 28. 1 rem agente Bitschofsky; 36. 3 instantes Ruperti; Dial. 13. 6 statuae Hess; 22. 5 obsoleta Gudeman.
Mr. J. Jackson claims thirteen conjectures in his recent edition of the Annals. He is at least the fourth person to propose custodes adessent at xv. 43. 3, and tibiis perdoctus at xiv. 60. 2 belongs to Hiller.
