I mean that the red text lines in the Greek manuscript LJS 62 pointed out by RobGea appear to be headings: they refer to the following text. I think the word "heading" (from "head") implies the property of appearing at the top of a text.
In VMS You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view., the shorter lines appear to be integral to the preceding text, so I don't think they can be properly named "headings". My obviously superficial and totally speculative impression is that the line I highlighted in red might be a caption referred to the illustration of the red plant immediately to its right.

That's the impression I have also. That LJS 62 are mostly headings (they are positioned similarly to some of English herbals, sometimes in the middle, sometimes on the left, and sometimes squeezed in between lines), whereas the VMS partial lines appear to relate to the preceding text.
I'm almost certain I have examples of partial lines that follow text (in addition to examples of catchwords), but my files have become so extensive I can't find things as fast as I used to (I can't remember what I called them). If I can locate them, I'll post them.
In the meantime, here's an example of a catchword from CCC MS 394:
[attachment=3590]
But the VMS dangling phrases (not the best term, but maybe it will do for now) do not appear to function as catchwords.
