Abstract We show that codimension 1 distributions with at most isolated singularities on threefold hypersurfaces Xd ⊂ P4 of degree d provide interesting examples of stable rank 2 reflexive sheaves. When d ≤ 5, these sheaves can be regarded as smooth points within an irreducible component of the moduli space of stable reflexive sheaves. Our second goal goes in the reverse direction: we start from a well-known family of stable locally free sheaves and provide examples of codimension 1 distributions of local complete intersection type on Xd.
