Sphaerodactylus roosevelti, also known commonly as Roosevelt's beige sphaero or Roosevelt's least gecko, is a small species of lizard in the family Sphaerodactylidae. The species is endemic to Puerto Rico.

The specific name, roosevelti, is in honor of Theodore Roosevelt Jr., who was Governor of Puerto Rico in 1931.
