Abstract
We study three same-spin-state fermions of mass interacting with a distinguishable particle of mass in the unitary limit where the interaction has a zero range and an infinite -wave scattering length. We predict an interval of mass ratio where there exists a purely four-body Efimov effect, leading to the occurrence of weakly bound tetramers without Efimov trimers.
