"The specific epithet honours the late Laurence (Laurie) George Adams (1929–2014) who in March 1967 collected, and recognised as distinct from U. aurea, the first known specimen of U. adamsii near Darwin, NT (Utricularia sp., Adams 1741). Laurie Adams worked as a researcher at the Australian National Herbarium
identifying and collecting plants from Australia."
