Minuscule 361 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε 316 (Soden), is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. Paleographically it has been assigned to the 13th century. It was adapted for liturgical use. It is known as Codex de Rossi 1.
The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 186 parchment leaves (10.8 cm by 8 cm) with lacunae (Luke 8:14-11:20). It is written in one column per page, in 20 lines per page.
It contains the tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel (with a harmony), lectionary equipment at the margin (for liturgical use), αναγνωσεις (lessons), Synaxarion, Menologion, subscriptions at the end of each Gospel, and numbers of στιχοι.
