| A qualitative and quantitative study has been made of the Recent taxa assigned, or related, to Balanus amphitrite Darwin. All taxa of the complex have been redescribed and a key provided. Interspecific relationships have been evaluated statistically through the use of the generalized distance function and discriminant function analyses. Two well defined groups and three subgroups have been defined and a key proposed. The discriminant function has also been utilized as an aid in the identification of unknown specimens of a closely related pair of taxa. |

| Since Darwin's (1854) description of 11 varieties of Megabalanus tintinnabulum (Linnaeus) [as Balanus tintinnabulum], 26 Recent taxa have been assigned to the genus. In this review, two taxa confounded by Darwin are reestablished [i.e., M. crispatus (Schroter) and M. dorbignii (Chenu)]. M. antillensis (Pilsbry) and M. intermedius (Darwin) are placed in synonymy with M. tintinnabulum sensu stricto. M. galapaganus (Pilsbry) is synonymized with M. peninsularis (Pilsbry) and M. xishaensis Xianqui & Liu is considered a synonym of M. occator. Diagnoses and an illustrated key to the species are presented. Lectotypes are designated for M. tintinnabulum, M. crispatus, M. dorbignii, M. coccopoma (Darwin), M. spinosus (Chenu), M. validus (Darwin), and M. ajax... |
