Élie-Abel Carrière (4 June 1818 – 17 August 1896) was a French botanist, based in Paris. He was a leading authority on conifers in the period 1850–1870, describing many new species, and the new genera Tsuga, Keteleeria and Pseudotsuga. His most important work was the Traité Général des Conifères, published in 1855, with a second, extensively revised edition in 1867.
There is a brief biography of Carrière, in English, in the journal Brittonia.[1]
In addition to his studies of conifers, he published a number of works in the field of horticulture:
