Forceps, tongs - four is more than three, and ceps are fungi, mushrooms.

Thanks both of you. I got that and googled ceps but no mention of mushrooms. I've never heard of ceps!

Glad I could help, Dave. Ceps/mushroom/fungi has come up in crosswords I've done over the years. Cep, edible mushroom, is in Chambers.

PS More straightforward than yesterday's!

Cep, also called porcino, is a common name for Boletus edulis, an edible mushroom.
As Malone says, it appears in crosswords quite often.
