Spongy mushroom (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

morel

'spongy mushroom' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for morel that I've seen before include "Edible fungus" , "Edible mushroom" , "One has a cap" , "Type of mushroom" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the USA Today.
