Resumen:
Three new species of Leptohyphes Eaton, 1882 (Ephemerotera: Leptohyphidae) are described, diagnosed and illustrated from nymphscollected in Colombia. Geographical ranges and ecological notes relating important environmental variables are given for each species. Leptohyphesandina sp. nov. is characterized by: forefemur length / maximum width 1.8-1.9, fore and hind margin of middle and hind femora with strong spine-likesetae on elevated sockets, femoral surface covered by small pale spots, apex of femora with anterior margin roundly projected distally, tarsal claw onlywith 3-4 marginal denticles, pronotum with triangular lateral projection, hind wing pads present in female, gill formula 3/5/5/5/2, gill V with ventralextension on dorsal lamella. Leptohyphes quimbaya sp. nov. presents the following characters: body covered by hair-like setae, with paired short andblunt tubercles on abdominal terga V-IX, femora wide (forefemur length/ maximum width 1.6), fore and hind margin of femora with tiny spine-likesetae, tarsal claws with 2-3 marginal denticles, pronotum with triangular (but apically blunt) lateral projection, hind wing pads present in females, gillformula 3/7/7/5/2, gill V without ventral extension on dorsal lamella. Leptohyphes calarca sp. nov. is distinguished by: pilose body, slender femora(forefemur length / maximum width 2.3), foremargin of middle and hind femora without setae, tarsal claws with 5 marginal denticles and 1 submarginalsubapical denticle, pronotum strongly projected laterally, fore wingbuds blackish, hind wing pads present in females, gill formula 3/4/4/3/1, gill V withventral extension on dorsal lamella.
