Stuck on a couple. Help appreciated
2d- a Jewish fast day commemorating the destruction of the 1st and 2nd temples in Jerusalem (6,3) T?S?A? B?B . Looks like it should be TISHAH BAV, but if so what is
18ac - a genus in the teasel family (8) ?C???O?A . I have Scabiosa for this, but if it's correct the last of the 3 letter word in 2d would be B not V. If Bav is correct then what is the answer to 18ac?
26d - a cluster of 5 stars in Taurus (5) H?A?S - I can find Hyades meeting this definition but not a 5 letter word. Suggestions?

Help gratefully received. Thanks.

2dn Answer is indeed Tishah Bav
Sorry, have just checked again and find itcan be written as either Tishah Bav or Tishah Bab. Therefore 18 ac is Scabiosa
Chambers gives Hyads and Hyades
