Leo II of Galicia, also known as Lev Yurevich (unknown – 1323) was Prince of Lutsk and Galicia, one of the last two Rurikid kings of Rus` (r. 1308–1323; according to some sources, 1315–23). He was a member of the senior branch of Monomakhovichi.

He was the son of King Yuri I (1252–1308), whom he succeeded on the royal throne of Galicia-Volhynia. After the death of his father, he ruled the kingdom together with his brother Andrey. His mother was Euphemia of Kuyavia. According to most sources, the brothers were co-kings, managing the kingdom together, but there are sources indicating that Lev II was seated in Halych and Andrew in Vladimir-in-Volhynia (and yet others stating a similar arrangement, but with the seats reversed), which would seem to imply split jurisdiction.
