Blue-green shade (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

teal

I believe this is a double definition.

'blue' is the first definition.
(I know that teal is a type of blue)

'green shade' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for teal that I've seen before include "Duck - dark greenish-blue" , "Variety of duck" , "Duck; greenish-blue colour" , "Dark green-blue; duck" , "Dark greenish-blue colour" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, the LA Times and The New York Times.
