Abstract
We study Willmore surfaces of constant Moebius curvature in . It is proved that such a surface in must be part of a minimal surface in or the Clifford torus. Another result in this paper is that an isotropic surface (hence also Willmore) in of constant could only be part of a complex curve in or the Veronese 2-sphere in . It is conjectured that they are the only examples possible. The main ingredients of the proofs are over-determined systems and isoparametric functions.
