PER CURIAM.

The defendant-appellant raises on appeal matters not contained in the record ‍‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍on appeal pertaining to evidence that was allegedly not disclosed by the prosecution during the time of the trial. Under the authority of McMann ‍‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍v. State, Fla.1951, 55 So.2d 538, and Johnson v. Town of Eatonville, Fla.App.1967, 203 So.2d 664, we are barred from reviewing any matter on appeal that ‍‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍is not made a part of the record on appeal. It would be completely improper for an appellate court to retry criminal cases on ‍‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍the appellate level from matters outside the record on appeal and we adhere to the established practice of review of matters only contained as ‍‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍part of the record.

Affirmed.
