One of the consequences of residual finiteness of triangle groups is that for any given hyperbolic triple $(\ell,m,n)$ there exist infinitely many regular hypermaps of type $(\ell,m,n)$ on compact orientable surfaces. The same conclusion also follows from a classification of those finite quotients of hyperbolic triangle groups that are isomorphic to linear fractional groups over finite fields. A non-orientable analogue of this, that is, existence of regular hypermaps of a given hyperbolic type on {\em non-orientable} compact surfaces, appears to have been proved only for {\em maps}, which arise when one of the parameters $\ell,m,n$ is equal to $2$. In this paper we establish a non-orientable version of the above statement in full generality by proving the following much stronger assertion: for every hyperbolic triple $(\ell,m,n)$ there exists an infinite set of primes $p$ of positive Dirichlet density, such that (i) there exists a regular hypermap $\mathcal{H}$ of type $(\ell,m,n)$ on a compact non-orientable surface such that the automorphism group of $\mathcal{H}$ is isomorphic to $\PSL(2,p)$, and, moreover, (ii) the carrier compact surface of {\em every} regular hypermap of type $(\ell,m,n)$ with rotation group isomorphic to $\PSL(2,p)$ is necessarily non-orientable.
