Resumen:
A new genus of Leptohyphidae, Yaurina gen. nov., is established. Males have very characteristic genitalia. Nymphs of this genus are superficially similar to Leptohyphes, but can be distinguished from them by the form and length of the femoral spines, number and arrengement of denticles on the tarsal claws and abdominal gill structure among others characters. Three species are describes, Y. yuta and Y. mota from male, female and nymphs from Argentina, and Y. yapa from a male subimago from Ecuador. Some nymphs previously assigned to Leptohyphes probably belong to this new genus.
