Omitted, as a syllable (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elided

'omitted as a syllable' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for elided that I've seen before include "cut off" , "Left out vowels" , "Missed end" , "Dropped (e.g. vowel)" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, The New York Times and the Universal.
