24 The I in 'plaice' is extra. The answer is hidden (and reflected) in the clue.

31. Take the T from Aslant - to get a famous ????. There's the usual 'new' and a common three-letter 'painting'.

8 'Extravagant' is an anagram indicator. The 'o' in Deco is extra. The first three words form the definition.

24 The number is a short Greek one. I'm more used to thinking of it as a letter, but Chambers confirms it as a numeral too.
