For purposes of transposition by clef, French violin clef is the same as bass clef, and sub-bass is the same as treble.
The two that are omitted are French violin clef (used a lot for flute music, not violin music, in the Baroque), with G on the 1st line, and sub-bass (used in Venetian vocal music of Gabrielli's time) with F on the 5th line.
Yes, I can see that. Obviously I am more used to thinking in terms of reading than in terms of transposing. And of course, if I'm counting correctly, those equivalencies would require a TWO octave adjustment--rather important for reading, but not a problem for transposing.
