Aegis (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

auspices

'aegis' is the definition.
(I know that aegis can be written as auspices)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for auspices that I've seen before include "Omens or patronage for USA epics" , "Under these, you have the help, support or protection of someone" , "Good offices" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, the New York Times and the Evening Standard.
