Vladimir Klavdiyevich Arsenyev (Russian: Влади́мир Кла́вдиевич Арсе́ньев) (1872–1930) was a Russian explorer of the Far East who recounted his travels in a series of books ("По Уссурийскому Краю" (1921), "Дерсу Узала" (1923)), telling of his military journeys to the Ussuri basin with Dersu Uzala, a native trapper, from 1902 to 1907. He was the first to describe numerous species of Siberian flora.

Arsenyev’s family home in Vladivostok has been made into a museum. Arsenyev, a town located in Primorsky Krai, was named after him.
