The book is in Latin and was printed abroad, so strictly it does not belong in STC.
Presumably the subject matter suggests that it was intended at least partly for the English market.
Since the catechism was created by royal warrant, and was (as the title suggests) for English usage, I imagine it was included in STC for the same reason the missals, etc., printed abroad but for the use of Salisbury were included (as discussed in the introduction to v. 1 of STC, p. xxiii).

Is the distinction between *apud* Andream Gessnerum and *per* Andream Gessnerum significant?
