Naval commander (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

admiral

'naval commander' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for admiral that I've seen before include "Highest ranking naval officer" , "Powerful sailor" , "Red butterfly in charge of the fleet" , "Brightly coloured butterfly" , "Navy bigwig" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, The Independent, the Sydney Morning Herald and the Evening Standard.
