    [ 95 ] Additions to the Plymouth Marine Fauna (1931) in t!1e CrustaceanOrdersTanaidacea,/sopodaand Amphipoda. By G. I. Crawford, Former Student Probationer at the Plymouth Laboratory. With 1 Figure in the Text. THIS list contains 2 species of TANAIDAcEA,6 of IsoPoDA and 28 of AMPHJPODA.These were all collected by myself in 1934-5, with the exception of 3 species of Amphipoda, which have not been entered in the Plymouth list although accounts of their capture at Plymouth have been published. These are Eusirus longipes Boeck, recorded by Hunt (1924) ; Gammarellus angulosus (Fabr.), by Kitching, Macan and Gilson (1934); and Gammarus zaddachi Sexton, by Serventy (1935). The list is drawn up in the systematic order adopted in Plymouth Marine Fauna (1931), with a reference to a good illustration of each species. The dates and circumstances of capture are stated, and when a species has already been recorded from offthe coasts of Devon and Corn- wall by Norman and Scott (1906) a note to that effect has been made. The distribution is not stated, since recent accounts of the distribution of every species are available in the following works: Tanaidacea and Isopoda: Nierstrasz and Stekhoven, '1930 (except for Synisoma acuminatana, q.v.). Amphipoda: Chevreux and Fage (1925) or Stephensen (1929). All the Amphipod species in this list are included in one or other of these publications, and almost all in both. Every species has been referred to a specialist for identification. Tan- aidacea and Eurydice truncata and Gnathia oxyur.ceato J. H. Schuurmans Stekhoven of Utrecht; the other Isopoda to Prof.

  • News Release
    News Release 22 May 2015 Waterfront Wishlist For many property buyers, there is one non-negotiable item on their wishlist – they have to be on or near the water’s edge. The sound, sight and smell of the coast is something that has drawn people for centuries and it’s made waterfront property highly prized around the coastline…with the premium to match. The most basic choice is the one between coast and estuary. The sandy beach, with views that seem to show the curvature of the earth, versus the daily ebb and flow of an estuary, with its promise of a ‘Swallows and Amazon’ lifestyle. The exact location is often narrowed down by the buyer’s passions and those of their family: Surfing or boating, sand or pebbles, a feeling of remoteness or the bustle of a coastal town. The south coast is a paradise for yachting and dingy sailing enthusiasts with its sheltered rivers and marinas. Salcombe and East Portlemouth, Dartmouth and Kingswear, Topsham, Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo, Fowey, St Mawes and The Helford Passage – just a few of the areas that are a magnet for those who want a home with easy access to a good mooring and a community of fellow boat- lovers. For surfing, the more exposed North Coast beaches are much in demand. Mawgan Porth, Porthleven and Polzeath are popular for surfers from all over the country with access to some of the UK’s best surfing breaks. St Ives and Padstow are also popular destinations; St Ives has a thriving artistic community – it’s home to the Cornish arm of the Tate – and Padstow has established itself as a foodie mecca.

  • WCA 573 Appendix E2
    APPENDIX E2 – - 842 - 16 December 2013 Cornwall Council County Hall TRURO Dear Modification Order application WCA 573 Church Lane St Mawgan Approximately two years ago our local Parish Council applied for the above Modification Order and a large number of parishioners supplied evidence, from their own experience, of this Lane being used without hindrance, or permission, by vehicular traffic, horses and pedestrians. At the November meeting of the St Mawgan-in-Pydar Parish Council the Clerk requested that parishioners with additional information should send this to you. This we are now doing. We, as land owners and residents on the lane, were asked to complete a questionnaire at the time of submission of the application for the Modification Order. This we did to the best of our knowledge at the time. Our property was constructed in 1956 and our deeds contain evidence that vehicles have used this Lane throughout that time. Our deeds also contain documents demonstrating that we have rights of access over the Lane. Even if they did not, these rights have been established by usage. Consequently, whatever the outcome of this Modification Order application, it will not change our legal rights and therefore we make the following submission without prejudice. Background to this submission As a result of an application to the Land Registry by the new owners of The Rectory, now called ’Yongala’, to register two parcels of land adjoining the Lane we have undertaken an extensive search of archival documents relating to the Lane. All the documentary evidence we quote below is either contained in the Cornwall Records Office, or St Mawgan-in-Pydar Parish Council Minute Books, or in the Deeds of our property should you wish to verify any of the information.

  • Offshore Spread and Toxic Effects of Detergents Sprayed on Shores
    CHAPTER 6 OFFSHORE SPREAD AND TOXIC EFFECTS OF DETERGENTS SPRAYED ON SHORES The shore surveys reported in the previous chapter have shown that detergent cleansing of rocks and sands causes extensive damage to, and often total destruction of, the populations of intertidal plants and animals in and immediately adjacent to areas of intensive spraying. There was also evidence that, as a result of movements of toxic water, organisms living a quarter of a mile or more from the area of spraying may be damaged or killed .. It seemed important therefore to investigate in greater detail the patterns of flow of shore-originating polluted water under different conditions of wind and tide; the concentration and persistence of the component deter• gent fractions; and their possible effects on organisms living in the off• shore waters. The investigations were undertaken during the month of April by teams working mainly in the Porthleven (South Cornwall) area. The teams, comprising shore-based parties and underwater divers, were aided by a ship survey (R.V. 'Sarsia' inshore stations A-M of 13 April, see Fig. 19) which included Agassiz-trawl sampling of the offshore benthic fauna. Laboratory measurements were made of the concentration of the component fractions of detergents present in the area of long-shore and offshore spread of the detergent-charged water. Oil reached PORTHLEVENon 25 March in considerable quantities during a period of spring tides and onshore winds so that in some places it was distributed well above the high-water mark. Very large amounts of deter• gent were subsequently used to combat the oil.
