	The '''Lessepsian migration''' (also called '''Erythrean invasion''') is the [[migration (ecology)\|migration]] of marine species across the [[Suez Canal]], usually from the [[Red Sea]] to the [[Mediterranean Sea]], and more rarely in the opposite direction. When the canal was completed in 1869, [[fish]], [[crustacean]]s, [[mollusk]]s, and other marine animals and plants were exposed to an artificial passage between the two naturally separate bodies of water, and cross-contamination was made possible between formerly isolated [[ecosystem]]s. The phenomenon is still occurring today. It is named after Ferdinand de Lesseps, the France diplomat in charge of the canal's construction.
