The ampithoid amphipod Sunamphitoe lessoniophila (Conlan y Bousfield, 1982) is recorded by first time after his original description, extending the distribution from near Coquimbo to Los Lagos Region, Southern Chile. The association with the macroalgae Lessonia trabeculata y Macrocystis pyrifera, is confirmed.
