Characters proposed for trechaleids by recent authors for this family and some character s used to separate it from the Pisauridae and Lycosidae are reviewed. Genera included in the family Trechaleidae, all of which were previously placed in the Pisauridae, are: Trechalea, Hesydrus, Syntrechalea, Dossenus, Paradossenus, Dyrines and Enna. Familial placement of all other genera of the western hemisphere previously placed in the Pisauridae are considered. The genus Trechalea, with eleven species, is revised. Redescriptions of eight known species are given: T. longitarsis (C. L. Koch), T. cezariana Mello-Leitao, T. macconnelli Pocock, T. paucispina di Caporiacco, T. connexa (O . Pickard-Cambridge), T. extensa (O . Pickard-Cambridge), T. gertschi Carico \& Minch and T. amazonica F. Pickard-Cambridge. Descriptions of three new species: T. boliviensis, T. lomalinda and T. trinidadensis are presented. The holotype of the type species of Trechalea, T. longitarsis, is lost. The specimen which was previously regarded as the holotype is mislabelled and belongs actually to another, unnamed, trechaleid genus.

Hesydrus palustris Simon and H. habilis (O.P.-Cambridge) are redescribed. Four new species are described: H. caripito, H. yacuiba and H. chanchamayo are described only from females, and H. canar from both male and female specimens. Hesydrus monticola Chamberlin is a junior synonym of H. palustris. Hesydrus bucculentus Simon is a senior synonym of Trechalea cezariana Mello-Leitao. Hesydrus estebanensis Simon is transferred to the genus Enna O.P.-Cambridge. Hesydrus ornatus Mello- Leitao and H. bivittatus Mello-Leitao, known only from unidentifiable spiderling holotypes, are regarded as nomina dubia. Coincidence of geographic distributions of Hesydrus and Trechalea are noted.

A female lectotype is designated for the type species, Dyrines striatipes (Simon 1898), which is redescribed and illustrated.
