Backs of necks (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

napes

'backs of necks' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Another definition for napes that I've seen is " Scruffs of the neck".)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, the USA Today, the Newsday, The Washington Post and the Penny Press.
