This is going slowly - very very slowly.
6 D. Citron pretty much yield rot (7)c--r---
15 A. Labyrinthine Minotaur consumed by piteous amphibian (11, two words) -----a-----
Is this ...toad,or am I way off target? Thanks for any help.

15A looks like SURINAM TOAD
6D might be corrode (but I cannot work out an axplanation)

Forgot to mention 15A is an anag of minotaur in sad

Jolan - I ''surinam toad' so am going with that. This would now make 6 D ('Citron...)c-d-r-t-.

Is it 7 or 8 letters? That's 8 but previously you gave it as 7.

Thanks Sammy. Your comment makes me suspecy CEDRATE = CITRUS. Now to find an explanation!

Ah yes! pretty much yield = CED(e) + RATE (v) = rot (v) = to scold, to tease

Don't like the last bit!

Sorry about the confusion with numbers.
Thanks for 'cedrate' - eminently logical!
