The Roosevelt–Rondon Scientific Expedition (Portuguese: Expedição Científica Rondon–Roosevelt) was a survey expedition in 1913–14 to follow the path of the Rio da Dúvida ("River of Doubt") in the Amazon basin. The expedition was jointly led by Theodore Roosevelt, the former President of the United States, and Colonel Cândido Rondon, the Brazilian explorer who had discovered its headwaters in 1909. Sponsored in part by the American Museum of Natural History, they also collected many new animal and insect specimens. The river was eventually named "Rio Roosevelt" for the former president. He nearly died during the voyage and his health was permanently damaged.

  • Экспедиция Рондона и Рузвельта — научно-исследовательская экспедиция в Бразилии в 1913—1914 годах. Тогда была впервые обстоятельно изучена долина реки, впоследствии названной в честь американского политика Теодора Рузвельта, участвовавшего в том объединении исследователей. Возглавлял экспедицию выдающийся бразильский военный Кандиду Рондон. (ru)
  • Die Roosevelt-Rondon Scientific Expedition (in Brasilien: Expedição Científica Rondon-Roosevelt) war eine von Dezember 1913 bis April 1914 unter der Leitung des früheren US-amerikanischen Präsidenten Theodore Roosevelt und des brasilianischen Offiziers, Ingenieurs und Abenteurers Cândido Rondon durchgeführte naturwissenschaftliche Südamerika-Expedition. Das vorrangige Ziel bestand darin, den wenige Jahre zuvor von Rondon entdeckten Rio da Dúvida (deutsch: Fluss des Zweifels) zu erforschen. (de)
  • A Expedição Científica Rondon-Roosevelt ocorreu entre 1913-1914, visando seguir o curso do rio da Dúvida (depois da expedição denominado rio Roosevelt), a fim de determinar se o mesmo era ou não afluente do Amazonas, e teve como líderes o Marechal Cândido Rondon e Theodore Roosevelt. Rondon encontraria o rio numa expedição anterior para a construção de uma linha telegráfica, porém a Expedição Científica Rondon-Roosevelt foi o primeiro grupo não-indígena conhecido a explorar o longo curso do rio, localizado em áreas remotas da Bacia Amazônica, na Amazônia, Brasil. Parte patrocinada pelo Museu Americano de História Natural, durante a expedição também foram coletadas várias espécies de animais e insetos. (pt)
