Scruffy habitat Tyrone contains (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tatty

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

'habitat tyrone contains' is the wordplay.
'contains' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'TATTY' is hidden within 'habitat tyrone'.

(Other definitions for tatty that I've seen before include "Showing signs of wear and tear" , "Neglected" , "In poor condition" , "Inferior, scruffy" , "Worn, shabby (colloq.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
