Hairsplitter (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

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

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for pedant that I've seen before include "Stickler for trifles" , "Person who is strict on rules and details" , "One is over-concerned with detail" , "One particular" , "Unimaginative person who insists on petty rules" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, The Mirror and The New York Times.
