The Culişer Canal (Romanian Canalul Culişer, Hungarian Köleseţ) is an artificial canal, starting from the Crişul Negru River upstream of the village of Tăuţ in Romania. Used mainly for irrigation and drainage, it crosses the city of Salonta and then flows into Hungary where it joins the Fekete-Körös. The canal intercepts the tributaries of the right bank of the Crişul Negru River.
