''Megabalanus stultus'' is a species of barnacle first described by Charles Darwin in 1854. It lives on fire corals of the genus ''Millepora'' in the Atlantic Ocean from Florida to southern Brazil. ==Ecology==
''Megabalanus stultus'' is one of three species of barnacle that live on fire corals (the genus ''Millepora''). ''Savignium milleporae'' lives in the Indo-Pacific and lives on 9 species of ''Millepora''; ''Megabalanus ajax'' lives in the western Pacific and lives on ''Millepora platyphylla''; ''Me. stultus'' lives in the western Atlantic, and lives on ''Mi. alcicornis'' and ''Mi. complanata''. The nature of the relationship between ''M. stultus'' and the coral is unclear. At low densities, the barnacle has no discernible effect on the coral, but high-densities of coral-inhabiting barnacles can disrupt the growth of the colony.〔
