Large amphibian with tag on it aroused notice (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
giant toad
'large amphibian' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'tag on it aroused notice' is the wordplay.
'aroused' is an anagram indicator (letters roused or stirred up into a new form).
'notice' becomes 'ad' (short for advert).
'tag'+'on'+'it'='tagonit'
'tagonit' with letters rearranged gives 'giantto'.
'giantto'+'ad'='GIANT TOAD'
'with' is the link.
