Time to get away from insect’s place (5)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
locus
'place' is the definition.
('place' in Latin)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for locus that I've seen before include "Venue" , "Spot" , "insect" , "line" , "Exact place of something" .)
