Dragon is missing a sign (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

virgo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'sign' is the definition.
(I know that Virgo is a sign)

I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for virgo that I've seen before include "Star sign" , "A constellation, a cluster" , "Maiden" , "Large constellation between Leo and Libra" , "Zodiacal sign" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
