Let $f$ be a non-constant meromorphic function satisfying $ff'\neq0$, and let $a\not\equiv 0$ be a small function related to $f$. If $f(z)=a(z)$ whenever $f'(z)=a(z)$, then either $f\equiv f'$ or $f(z)=2a/(1-ce^{-2z})$, where $a, c$ are two non-zero constants and $a(z)\equiv a$.

Keywords: Meromorphic function, unicity, small function.

MSC 2000: 30D35.
