Ambidexter symmetricus Manning & Chace, 1971 (Fig. 9) Ambidexter symmetricus Manning & Chace, 1971: 3, figs. 1–2. Material examined. 1 ni, 18.VIII. 2007, Maraú, Tanque Island, T 2, MZUESC 1106; 1 m, 17.VIII. 2007, Maraú, Tanque Island, T 3, MZUESC 1110. Distribution. Western Atlantic—Florida to Brazil (Pernambuco to Santa Catarina) (Christoffersen 1998). Ecological notes. The material examined was collected at a depth of 0.8–1 m and salinity 31–32 psu. The type of bottom was not recorded. Previous records. None. Remarks. An identification key to the Brazilian Processidae was provided by Almeida & Bezerra (2011). Ambidexter Manning & Chace, 1971 is readily recognized by the chelate first pereiopods (vs. only one, usually the right, of the first pereiopods chelate in Processa Leach, 1815 and Nikoides Paulson, 1875) (Manning & Chace 1971). : Published as part of Almeida, Alexandre O., Boehs, Guisla, Araújo-Silva, Catarina L. & Bezerra, Luis Ernesto A., 2012, Shallow-water caridean shrimps from southern Bahia, Brazil, including the first record of Synalpheus ul (Ríos & Duffy, 2007) (Alpheidae) in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean, pp. 1-35 in Zootaxa 3347 on pages 24-26, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.214608 : {"references": ["Manning, R.
