Etymology:
"The epithet is derived from the Latin, exasperatus (covered with short hard points, roughened), and refers to the rough appearance of the stems and inflorescences relative to A. correifolia with its stalked and longer hairs giving it a soft appearance; and for the emotive expression of the principal author (and student) circumscribing their first novel species."
