Lies, untruths (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fibs

This clue is a double definition.

'lies' is the first definition.
(I know this)

'untruths' is the second definition.
(fib is a kind of untruth)

(Other definitions for fibs that I've seen before include "Trivial lies as by child" , "Harmless little lies" , "Little white lies" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
