What does Río Negro mean?

1 published definition

Río Negro

A massive tributary of the Amazon River. It is named for its dark color caused by high mineral content, making it the largest blackwater river in the world. It originates in Colombia (where it is known as the Guainia River), forms part of the international border with Venezuela, and eventually flows into Brazil to meet the Amazon.

Río Negro is the largest of its kind.
