Adolph Daniel Edward Elmer (June 14, 1870 – 1942) was an American botanist and plant collector.[1] He was mostly active in the Philippines, his collections being described as new species by both himself and other botanists. The Japanese sent him into Santo Tomas Internment Camp during the Philippines campaign and he died there.
