Adolf Straehler (also Strähler)[1] (10. December 1829 – 12 February 1897) was a Silesian forester and botanist.[2]

Life

Straehler was born in Szczawno-Zdrój (Salzbrunn), Lower Silesian, Poland.[2] He first attended his local village school, before attending the secondary school in Kamienna Góra (Landeshut), where he was taught by Conrector Höger who cultivated Straehler's life-long interest of flora.[2] He completed a forestry apprenticeship in Unisław Śląski (Langwaltersdorf) and then undertook military service in the Garde-Jäger-Bataillon.[2]

After completing his service, Straehler was employed as a forestry assistant at Pszczyna (Pless) and Glinik Nowy (Neuhain). In 1858 he was transferred to Sokołowsko (Görbersdorf) and promoted to the district's forester.[2]

In 1880, he became the chief forester at Leśniczówka Smolary (Theerkeute),[3] and it is in Leśniczówka Smolary that he started to publish his studies of the local flora.[2] He retired in 1890 and moved to Jawor (Jauer) to be closer to family.[2][4] He died after a period of poor health in 1897.
