Type of fly (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tsetse

'type of fly' is the definition.
(I know that tsetse is a type of fly)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for tsetse that I've seen before include "African transmitter" , "Disease-carrying fly" , "cause of sleepiness?" , "carrier of disease" , "flies" .)

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