Weight unit (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ounce

'weight unit' is the definition.
(I know that ounce is a type of troy unit)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ounce that I've seen before include "Wildcat" , "Jaguar" , "Unit of weight - snow leopard" , "one of a number in the pound" , "Small unit of weight" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the Canadiana, the King Feature Syndicate, the Universal, The Guardian, The Telegraph, the L.A. Times Daily and The Times.
