Southern US states (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dixie

'southern us states' is the definition.
(nickname for the southern US states)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for dixie that I've seen before include "Camp-kettle" , "The Deep South" , "American League?" , "Confederate US states" , "Army cooking pot - the southern states of the USA" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and the Evening Standard.
