1.194 octavation

ES: ?, I: ?, F: ?, D: ?, NL: ?, DK: ?, S: ?, FI: ?.

The use of a phrase or abbreviation with an extender line or bracket to indicate that a passage is to be played in a different octave:

Another practice, which may be useful for longer passages, is to indicate the different octave with a phrase at the beginning (see below). When the music returns to the written pitch, the octavation is cancelled with the word loco (q.v.).

To parallel the list above:

Quindicesima can be replaced with quindecima, which is Latin.
