The Wilma Glacier is the western of two glaciers in the East Antarctic Kempland , which flow into the southern section of Edward VIII Bay . The other is the Robert Glacier .
A sled team around the Australian geodesist and cartographer Robert George Dovers (1921-1981) mapped him in 1954 as part of the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions . The Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) named the glacier after Dovers' wife Wilma.
