Unusual thrones with six legs (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hornets

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'six legs' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.

'unusual thrones' is the wordplay.
'unusual' indicates an anagram.
'thrones' anagrammed gives 'HORNETS'.

'with' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for hornets that I've seen before include "Large stinging wasps" , "Large type of wasps" .)
