Ceres and Pluto are ____ planets (5)

I believe the answer is:

dwarf

(Other definitions for dwarf that I've seen before include "Happy for one" , "Overshadow" , "Very small person or thing" , "Midget" , "Miniature variety of a plant or animal" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
