Family Leptohyphidae

Five Cuban species are recognized in the family Leptohyphidae . All are included in the genus Tricorythodes following Kluge and Naranjo (1990) and Domínguez et al. (2006). Although members of the sacculobranchis species group were treated as Asioplax by Wiersema and McCafferty (2000), that genus was not recognized in later analyses of Neotropical Tricorythodes ( Molineri 2002, 2006; Dias et al. 2019). The five Cuban species were divided into three distinct species groups by Kluge and Naranjo (1990) based on body form, pilosity, and structure of the operculate gills.
