11 two for retail sale, mourn or grieve(pine)

There appears to be a Bishop pine. Not sure if that fits though.

Thank you, very very complicated but thank you for that answer. I wonder if setter is clever enough to set a question like that.
Will recheck no 11 but again thank you trying so hard I have been struggling for nearly 5 weeks and still have not got all answers.

Your # 40 looks very much like JAPANESE BLACK PINE, though I don't see how you can get "black" to have anything to do with "biro" --- are sure about that element?

If you take "pen" for biro plus "i" that would make pine (or did you realize that?); I've tried "crop", "loin" & "rump" for "back of bovine", even "Kalb" (German for "calf") reversed, but it still doesn't QUITE work out! Of course "back of bovine" could also be simply "-ine", too!!!

Jude: Google "japanese crop pine" and you'll find pictures of one after all! I think we've finished!
