Spider, scorpion, etc (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

arachnid

(Other definitions for arachnid that I've seen before include "Harvestman, possibly," , "One of species including spiders, scorpions etc" , "Spider, mite, tick etc.; had in car (anag.)" , "Spider in a chard" , "Incy Wincy Spider, say" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
