Fulgentius Ferrandus (died 546 or 547) was a deacon of the Church of Carthage in the sixth century, active as a theological consultant to Roman church leadership during disputes including the Three Chapters controversy under Emperor Justinian. He authored the Breviatio Canonum Ecclesiasticorum, a collection of 232 canons drawn from the oldest Greek and African church councils, summarizing rules governing clerical conduct and church discipline. He also wrote a treatise on Christian ethical conduct for soldiers and numerous letters addressing theological and disciplinary questions.
