Some ermines (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stoats

'some ermines' is the definition.
(I know this)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for stoats that I've seen before include "Short-tailed weasels" , "Weasel-like mammals" , "European ermines" , "In winter, they're known as ermines" , "Their chestnut coats turn white in winter" .)

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