This letter is missing from the newer (contemporary) Greek alphabet.
There is though gap in the sequence of the Greek alphabet exposed due to the use of the Ancient Greek alphabet as numbers/numericals ( Α=1, Β=2, Γ=3, Δ=4, Ε=5, [F]=6, Ζ=7, ... Ι=10, Κ=20, Λ=30, Μ=40, Ν=50, Ξ=60, 0=70, Π=80, [?]=90, Ρ=100, Σ=200, ... ), reminding that there was a letter in that specific order in the ancient Greek alphabet which is missing to date.
We call this letter "Koppa" (qoppa). The figure of lightning (the pointed S) represents it quite well. The Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras is referring to that letter.
The pronunciation of this letter was similar to "K" although in some combinations (e.g. QU) was pronounced just like the Latin/English letter "P". ( QU = P ).
