Crownhill Down is now under threat from tungsten mining. There are earlier records from the Bovey Tracey area, where the sites were destroyed by mid 20 th century housing developments and ball clay mining, from the East Devon Commons where it was last reported from a number of sites in 1963, and from the Blackdown Hills where it persisted at Maiden Down until 1985.

POSEY* and JAMES F. GOGGANS Department of Forestry THERE HAS BEEN considerable interest in growing Cupressus (cypress) in the Southeast for several years. The Agricultural Experiment Station, Auburn University, was the first institution in the Southeast to initiate work on the cy- presses in 1937, and since that time many states have introduced Cupressus in hope of finding a species suitable for Christmas tree production. In most cases seed for trial plantings were obtained from commercial dealers without reference to seed source or form of parent tree. Many plantings yielded a high proportion of columnar-shaped trees not suitable for the Christmas tree market. It is probable that seed used in Alabama and other Southeastern States came from only a few trees of a given geo- graphic source.

    Barnstaple U3A Geology Group – Activities in 2019

    Barnstaple U3A Geology Group – activities in 2019 Talks 11th January - AGM; followed by David Dickinson: “Coal, Where would we be without it?” The industrial revolution which began in England during the 18th Century was made possible by this country’s ample coal deposits. The conversion of carbon into heat allowed us to exploit iron ore deposits, construct steel structures and harness steam power. 8th February – Emeritus Prof Chris King: ”Volcano in the Mendips – would we survive?” With excellent practical demonstrations throughout, Chris illustrated the evidence for 425 yr old volcanoes in the Mendips. He outlined the different categories of volcanic eruption that can occur and said that those that took place in the Mendips were similar to that of Mt St Helens in 1980, i.e. explosive. So too were the Tintagel volcanoes in the Carboniferous. 8th March – Dr Danny Clarke-Lowes: “Libyan Geology – looking for oil”: Libya culturally is divided into two parts by the Gulf of Sirt. The present impasse over ownership of Libya’s oil stems from this divide. The largest oil fields lie in the otherwise deserted Sirt Basin (an extensional oil province similar in many ways and scale to the North Sea but predominantly with Cretaceous reservoirs rather than Jurassic), positioned inland from the Gulf of Sirt. 12th April – Dr Stan Coates: “Geology and mineral resources of Afghanistan.” Stan introduced us to the geology and mineral resources of Afghanistan and explained the difficulties in carrying out fieldwork in this area and of working and living in Kabul. 10th May – Jan Robertson: “Have some Madeira, M’Dear” - an alcohol-free look at the island of Madeira (but with appropriate cake).

Please worm your dogs regularly, tell your friends and neighbours. C Ovis or Cysticercus Oviv costs the UK sheep industry £7 million in 2009. It is spread by dogs mainly via Canine Adult Tapeworm known as Tacnia Ovis. The dogs get the infection from infected meat or offal. The eggs survive on pasture for up to 6 months. It is alarming the spped that dead carcases of sheep are Clerk consumed. Please keep all your dogs under close control. Not running around the woods upsetting wildlife and stock neighbouring it. If you can’t see them they could be SB eating Tacnia Ovis infected fallen stock. Each sheep infected costs me £15 to dispose of plus loss of income and associated slaughter costs.

    Seiridium Canker of Cypress Trees in Arizona Jeff Schalau

    ARIZONA COOPERATIVE E TENSION AZ1557 January 2012 Seiridium Canker of Cypress Trees in Arizona Jeff Schalau Introduction Leyland cypress (x Cupressocyparis leylandii) is a fast- growing evergreen that has been widely planted as a landscape specimen and along boundaries to create windbreaks or privacy screening in Arizona. The presence of Seiridium canker was confirmed in Prescott, Arizona in July 2011 and it is suspected that the disease occurs in other areas of the state. Seiridium canker was first identified in California’s San Joaquin Valley in 1928. Today, it can be found in Europe, Asia, New Zealand, Australia, South America and Africa on plants in the cypress family (Cupressaceae). Leyland cypress, Monterey cypress, (Cupressus macrocarpa) and Italian cypress (C. sempervirens) are highly susceptible and can be severely impacted by this disease. Since Leyland and Italian cypress have been widely planted in Arizona, it is imperative that Seiridium canker management strategies be applied and suitable resistant tree species be recommended for planting in the future. The Pathogen Seiridium canker is known to be caused by three different fungal species: Seiridium cardinale, S. cupressi and S. unicorne. S. cardinale is the most damaging of the three species and is SCHALAU found in California. S. unicorne and S. cupressi are found in the southeastern United States where the primary host is JEFF Leyland cypress. All three species produce asexual fruiting Figure 1. Leyland cypress tree with dead branch (upper left) and main leader bodies (acervuli) in cankers. The acervuli produce spores caused by Seiridium canker. (conidia) which spread by water, human activity (pruning and transport of infected plant material), and potentially insects, birds and animals to neighboring trees where new Symptoms and Signs infections can occur.
