Rev. Daniel Ziegler (June 11, 1804 Reading, Pennsylvania – May 23, 1876 York, Pennsylvania) was a minister in Kreutz Creek and York, Pennsylvania, and also an avid entomologist. He was a friend of Dr. Frederick Ernst Melsheimer, who like his father the Rev. Frederick Valentine Melsheimer, was also a keen entomologist. Their collections ended up in a Harvard University museum, and comprised 14,774 specimens from 5,302 different species.
