African bloodsucking fly (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tsetse

(Other definitions for tsetse that I've seen before include "Disease-carrying fly" , "Bloodsucking African fly" , "carrier of disease" , "cause of sleepiness?" , "bloodsucker" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
