With the motivation to develop superconformal field theory on S 3 , we introduce a 2n-extended supersphere S 3|4n , with n = 1, 2, . . . , as a homogeneous space of the three-dimensional Euclidean superconformal group OSp(2n|2, 2) such that its bosonic body is S 3 . Supertwistor and bi-supertwistor realizations of S 3|4n are derived. We study in detail the n = 1 case, which is unique in the sense that the R-symmetry subgroup SO * (2n) of the superconformal group is compact only for n = 1. In particular, we show that the OSp(2|2, 2) transformations preserve the chiral subspace of S 3|4 . Several supercoset realizations of S 3|4n are presented. Harmonic/projective extensions of the supersphere by auxiliary bosonic fibre directions are sketched.
