Immature insect form (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

larva

nymph

'immature insect form' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for larva that I've seen before include "Immature form of an insect before metamorphosis" , "Woodworm" , "a developmental stage" , "Wriggler" , "Grub of e.g. beetle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Times.
