In Cyprus, settlers find apple (6)
I believe the answer is:
russet
'apple' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'in cyprus settlers' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'RUSSET' is hidden within 'cyprus settlers'.
'find' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for russet that I've seen before include "Dessert apple" , "Autumn red" , "Autumnal reddish-brown colour" , "Reddish-brown - not orange!" , "browny-red" .)
