Nit-picking (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pedantic

'nit-picking' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for pedantic that I've seen before include "Overly concerned with minor details" , "Excessively scrupulous" , "Abstruse" , "Fussy about correctness" , "Academic or didactic" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The Telegraph, the Universal and The Times.
