Emaciated, bony (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

skeletal

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'emaciated' is the first definition.
(I know that emaciated can be written as skeletal)

'bony' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for skeletal that I've seen before include "Very thin, emaciated" , "Consisting of bones" , "reduced to a minimum" , "wasted" , "pinched" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
