Parasitic insects (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lice

'parasitic insects' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for lice that I've seen before include "Parasitic insects" , "Wingless bloodsucking parasites" , "Crawlers" , "Bloodsucking insects" , "Bloodsucking parasitic insect" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal, The Irish Times and The Times.
