Female monarch (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

queen

'female monarch' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for queen that I've seen before include "Good - - Bess" , "She commands" , "powerful man on board" , "Elizabeth, Victoria or Anne, for example" , "Regina" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The Telegraph, The Irish Times, The Times, The Independent and The Mirror.
