Hungarian composer found in Townsville Harbour? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lehar

'hungarian composer' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in townsville harbour?' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'LEHAR' is hidden in the letters of 'townsville harbour'.

'found' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for lehar that I've seen before include "Operettist" , "Viennese composer" , "Operetta composer" , "Hungarian composer of operettas" , "Franz -----, composer of The Merry Widow" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
