In [2], was obtained a characterization of the surfaces in R3 which are envelopes of a sphere congruence in R3, in which the other envelope is in R2. In this paper, we characterize the surfaces of H3 and S3 which are envelopes of a congruence of geodesic spheres in H3 and S3, respectively, in which the other envelope is contained in H2 H3
and S2 S3. We show that this characterization allows locally to obtain a parameterization of the surfaces contained in H3 and S3, this characterization extends the result obtained in [2]. Moreover, we provide sufficient conditions for these surfaces to be locally associated by a transformation of Ribaucour. Also, we present families of surfaces parameterized by lines of curvature in H3 and S3, which depend on a function of two variables which is solution of a differential equation. Finally, we characterize the surfaces of the spherical type in H3 and S3, as the surfaces where its radius function is the solution of the Helmholtz equation.
