name no more than a minute fraction.

With the Renaissance came a revival in classical scholarship, and in the 16th and 17th centuries hundreds of Latin and Greek words were naturalized into English – among them apparatus, area, crisis, maximum, poem, and pollen, to name no more than a minute fraction.

Could you tell me what it means?

Sorry, I still can't understand with this sentence embedding into the whole sentence. Does it mean that only a very few suchlike words in English or the writer doesn't like to show too many instances?
