We present the first record of Ambidexter symmetricus Manning &amp; Chace, 1971 for the state of Rio Grande do Norte, northeastern Brazil, filling a distribution gap of this species in the country. We confirm the preference of this species for seagrass meadows in the Curimata&uacute; river estuary. Lastly, a brief overview and an updated distribution map for the records of this species on the Brazilian coast are provided.
