This article appears in Volume V01, Page 174 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: ADA-AIZ
ADAMS, ANDREW LEITH (1827-1882) , Scottish naturalist and palaeontologist, the second son of Francis Adams of Banchory, Aberdeen, was born on the 21st of
March
  1827, and was educated to the medical profession. As surgeon in the Army Medical Department from 1848 to 1873, he utilized his opportunities for the study of natural history in India and Kashmir, in
Egypt
 ,
Malta
 , Gibraltar and Canada. His observations on the fossil vertebrata of the Maltese Islands led him eventually to give
special
  study to fossil elephants, on which he became an acknowledged authority. In 1872 he was elected F.R.S. In 1873 he was chosen professor of
zoology
  in the Royal College of Science, Dublin, and in 1878 professor of natural history in Queen's College,
Cork
 , a post which he held until the close of his
life
 . He died at
Queenstown
  on the 29th of July 1882.
