Srite Glacier flows eastward and south-eastward from Janke Nunatak in the Hauberg Mountains to the Orville Coast, north-east of Cape Zumberge, in southern Palmer Land in the British Antarctic Territory.

The glacier was photographed from the air by the United States Navy in 1965-67, and mapped from air photographs by the United States Geological Survey. It is named after Cdr David Alan Srite, the United States Navy, Operations Officer, Antarctic Development Squadron Six, 1977-78, and chief navigator of an LC-130 aircraft in support of a the United States Geological Survey field party in the area.
