Adult polliwog (4)

I believe the answer is:

toad

'adult polliwog' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for toad that I've seen before include "A loathsome person" , "Wind in Willows hall-owner" , "Stout-bodied amphibian" , "Tailless amphibian" , "Hateful person; animal" .)

I've seen this clue in the L.A. Times Daily, the King Feature Syndicate, the L.A. Times Magazine, the Newsday.com and the Family Time.
