Leigh M. Van Valen (August 12, 1935 - October 16, 2010) was an American evolutionary biologist known for his contributions to taxonomy and evolutionary theory. He proposed the Red Queen hypothesis in 1973, complementing his law of extinction, which concerned the constant probability of extinction among closely related families of organisms. He defined the Ecological Species Concept in 1976 and suggested in 1991 that HeLa cells be defined as a new species called Helacyton gartleri. Van Valen was a professor at the University of Chicago's Department of Ecology and Evolution.
