Feline swallows a red organ found in the neck (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

larynx

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'organ found in the neck' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'feline swallows a red' is the wordplay.
'feline' becomes 'lynx' (lynx is a kind of feline).
'swallows' is an insertion indicator.
'red' becomes 'r' (I've seen this in other clues).
'a'+'r'='ar'
'lynx' going around 'ar' is 'LARYNX'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for larynx that I've seen before include "Site of the vocal cords" , "Where growls come from" , "Cavity containing vocal chords" , "Location of vocal cords" , "Creator of speech" .)
