River of the lower world (4)

I believe the answer is:

styx

(Other definitions for styx that I've seen before include "River crossed at death" , "Underground river" , "One of the underworld rivers" , "Underworld river with ferryman Charon" , "The last river one crosses" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
