    • This edition drops one story (Récit de l'étudiant) and adds seven more texts to the original collection. Among these, it is not clear whether Contes d'un buveur d'éther is a collection (as suggested by its title and other pubs) or has to be considered as a single story.
    • The "Préface de l'édition originale d'Histoires de Masques" below is credited by nooSFere to Jean Lorrain himself, but might indeed correspond to Gustave Coquiot's preface to the original edition.
