Crossword Genius

Still one that is found in Himalayan mythology (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

yeti

'that is found in himalayan mythology' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'still one' is the wordplay.
'still' becomes 'yet' ('yet' can be a synonym of 'still').
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'yet'+'i'='YETI'

(Other definitions for yeti that I've seen before include "creature of dubious existence" , "An abominable animal!" , "fictional creature" , "The Abominable Snowman in Tibetan" , "Himalayan mystery" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
