National rival (4)
I believe the answer is:
avis
'national rival' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for avis that I've seen before include "Rara --, rare bird (or car rental firm)" , "Unusual bird or extraordinary person - rara ?." .)
I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
