Line of descent (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pedigree

'line of descent' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for pedigree that I've seen before include "Pure-bred animal's line of descent" , "(Distinguished) lineage" , "Breeding; descent" , "Distinguished line of ancestors" , "Lineage of purebred animal" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post and The Independent.
