Wispy clouds (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cirri

'wispy clouds' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for cirri that I've seen before include "Highest clouds" , "High altitude clouds forming 'mare's tails'" , "High wisps of clouds" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times.
