Spider woman? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

arachne

'spider woman?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for arachne that I've seen before include "She was transformed to a spider in Greek myth" , "Greek girl who unwisely challenged Athena and ended up as a spider" .)

I've seen this clue in the L.A. Times Daily, The Washington Post and The Sun.
