Abstract
We argue that the existence of a new narrow (Γ ≤ 25 MeV) nucleon resonance N* (1685) is strongly supported by recent data on the η photoproduction off the nucleon. The resonance has a much stronger photocoupling to the neutron than to the proton. This nucleon resonance is a good candidate for the nonstrange member of the exotic antidecouplet of baryons—the partner of the pentaquark Θ+. All of the properties of new N* (1685) known to date are summarized.
