A congruence of straight lines whose focal nets are formed by the curvature lines of the focal surfaces. One of the surfaces of centres of curvature of each focal surface carries a focal net consisting of geodesic lines. The spherical image of the developable surfaces of a Guichard congruence is a [[Chebyshev net|Chebyshev net]]. The focal surfaces of a Guichard congruence are called Guichard surfaces. Guichard congruences are named after G. Guichard (1889), who was the first to consider them.

A congruence of straight lines whose focal nets are formed by the curvature lines of the focal surfaces. One of the surfaces of centres of curvature of each focal surface carries a focal net consisting of geodesic lines. The spherical image of the developable surfaces of a Guichard congruence is a Chebyshev net. The focal surfaces of a Guichard congruence are called Guichard surfaces. Guichard congruences are named after C. Guichard (1889), who was the first to consider them.
