Resumen:
Traverhyphes gen. nov. is established and illustrated for two neotropical species: Traverhyphes indicator (Needham & Murphy, 1924) new comb., and Traverhyphes pirai, spec. nov. The first is redescribed from imagos of both sexes, nymphs and eggs collected in Argentina. Traverhyphes pirai is described from male subimagos from Brazil (Rio de Janeiro). Female imagos, nymphs and eggs of T. indicator are described for the first time. Traverhyphes gen. nov. can be distinguished from the other genera of Leptohyphidae in the male imago by its charateristic genitalia, and by the opercular gill size and form in the nymphs.
