Jumping insect (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

flea

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

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for flea that I've seen before include "Small parasitic insect" , "Jumping parasite" , "Little jumper?" , "source of infestation" , "Bloodsucking parasite" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex), The Guardian, the Universal, The Daily Mail, The Mirror, The Telegraph, The Sun and The Times.
