Egyptian cobras (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

asps

'egyptian cobras' is the definition.
('asp' can be a synonym of 'egyptian cobra')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for asps that I've seen before include "Poisonous snakes" , "people" , "Pass (anag)" , "Small venomous snakes" , "Deadly snakes" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, the LA Times, the Universal and the Newsday.
