A formalism for discussing low frequency electrostatic modes in a general axisymmetric toroidal geometry is developed. Particular emphasis is laid on the conflict between the requirements of long parallel wavelengths and double toroidal periodicity in the presence of shear. Expressions for the perturbed charge density useful for examining flute, drift and trapped particle modes are presented.
