contents TOI-2285 b is a sub-Neptune-sized planet orbiting a nearby M dwarf, discovered through the TESS photometric survey and ground-based follow-up observations. The planet was initially reported to have an orbital period of 27.27 d, making it one of the lowest temperature sub-Neptunes transiting a bright M dwarf. However, additional TESS data reveal that its true orbital period is 13.64 d, half the original value, resulting in a warmer equilibrium temperature (358 K) than previously estimated (284 K). The misidentification likely resulted from the low signal-to-noise ratio of individual transit signals and the limited number of transits observed by TESS at that time. This case highlights the importance of carefully considering harmonic solutions for similar cases. The additional TESS data also reveal another planetary candidate with an orbital period of 9.67 d and a radius of 1.5 $R_\oplus$, requiring validation in future studies.
