Color variant (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hue

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">color variant</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for hue that I've seen before include "Tinge" , "General outburst of alarm or protest - . . . and cry" , "red or black, say" , "Shade, aspect; Vietnam port" , "'Pigment, colour (3)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, The New York Times and the L.A. Times Daily.
