Dark wood (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ebony

'dark wood' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ebony that I've seen before include "Heavy hard wood, usually black" , "'Hard, dark wood (5)'" , "Dark hardwood" , "Tree having black wood" , "hard stuff" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, The Telegraph, the King Feature Syndicate, the LA Times, the Newsday, The Star Tribune, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Mirror, the Evening Standard and The Independent.
