Small criticism (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nit

'small criticism' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for nit that I've seen before include "small egg" , "Egg of a louse (3)" , "Cause of much head-scratching" , "Eg of louse" , "Hair louse" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the USA Today, The Wall Street Journal and the New York Times.
