  We report theoretical and experimental results on the transition metal
pnictide WP. The theoretical outcomes based on tight-binding calculations and
density functional theory indicate that WP is a three-dimensional
superconductor with an anisotropic electronic structure and nonsymmorphic
symmetries. On the other hand, magnetoresistance experimental data and the
analysis of superconducting fluctuations of the conductivity in external
magnetic field indicate a weakly anisotropic three-dimensional superconducting
phase.
