We prove that any (real or complex) analytic horizontally conformal submersion from a three-dimensional conformal manifold (M3, cM) to a two-dimensional conformal manifold (N2, cN) can be, locally, extended to a unique harmonic morphism from the
(eaven)-space (H4, g) of (M3, cN) to (N2, cN). Moreover, any positive harmonic morphism with two-dimensional fibres from (H4, g) is obtained in this way.
