Complementary to the conventional experimental studies on N＊ from πN and γ（＊）N reactions, the e＋e-, pp and pp collisions can give novel insights into these N＊ resonances. While the e＋e- collisions through production and decay of vector charmonium ψ provide a nice isospin filter for a simultaneously study of N＊, △＊, ∧＊, ∑＊ and 2＊, the pp collisions should be the best place for producing those △＊＋＋ with large coupling to p＋p though pp →nA＊＋＋ reaction, and the pp collisions should be the best place for looking for those N＊ with large coupling to σN.
A new particle Σ^ ＊ with J ^P = 1/2^-was predicted by unquenched quark models with its mass around the well established Σ ＊ （1385） with J P = 3/2 ＋ .Here we re-examine some old data of the K^-p → Λπ^-π^ ＋ reaction.Firstly we re-fit the data for kaon beam momenta in the range of 1.0 - 1.8 GeV.Secondly we study the reaction at the energies around Λ＊（1520） peak.Both studies show evidence for the existence of Σ＊with J^ P = 1/2^-around 1380 MeV.Higher statistic data on relevant reactions are needed to clarify the situation.
