Asleep uncomfortably in wood (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sapele

'wood' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'asleep uncomfortably' is the wordplay.
'uncomfortably' indicates anagramming the letters.
'asleep' with letters rearranged gives 'SAPELE'.

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for sapele that I've seen before include "wood" , "Tropical hardwood" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
