Speck of dust (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mote

'speck of dust' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for mote that I've seen before include "'Particle, speck (4)'" , "Dust speck; sounds like watery defence" , "Tiny piece, speck" , "A particle of dust" , "Spot" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, the USA Today, the Universal and the King Feature Syndicate.
