Type of wasp (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hornet

'type of wasp' is the definition.
(I know that hornet is a type of vespid wasp)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for hornet that I've seen before include "Troublesome nester" , "A large wasp with severe sting (6)" , "Small flier" , "Run through" , "Large stinging wasp" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
