    It is well known that there are no minimal surfaces of constant curvature lying fully in the hyperbolic \(4\)-space \(H^4(-1)\). In contrast, in this paper, the author discovered a minimal immersion of the hyperbolic plane \(H(-\frac13)\) of curvature \(-\frac13\) into the neutral pseudo-hyperbolic \(4\)-space \(H_2^{4}(-1)\). Moreover, he proves that, up to rigid motions of \(H_2^{4}(-1)\), this minimal immersion provides the only space-like parallel minimal surface lying fully in \(H_2^{4}(-1)\).
