'''Ernst Walter Mayr''' ([[Kempten]], [[Alemanya]]; [[5 de juliol]] de [[1904]] - † Bedford, [[Massachusetts]], [[Estats Units]]; [[3 de febrer]] de [[2005]]) fon un dels més notables [[biologia evolutiva|biòlecs evolutius]] del [[sigle XX]]. Fon, ademés un [[taxonomia|taxònom]] en molt de renom, explorador dels tròpics, [[ornitologia|ornitòlec]], [[història de la ciència|historiador de la ciència]] i [[naturaliste]]. La seua obra contribuí a la revolució conceptual que portà a la síntesis moderna de la [[teoria de l'evolució]] i al desenroll del concepte biològic d'[[espècie]].
