Slowpoke in a shell (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

snail

(Other definitions for snail that I've seen before include "Edible gastropod" , "Mollusc with coiled shell" , "Slow slithery mollusc" , "Proverbially slow moving mollusc" , "Soft-bodied garden animal with shell" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
