Etymology: "The epithet recognises the extensive work of Murray Allan Fagg in photographing the Australian flora and communicating the beauty of Australian natives to a broad audience through a series of popular books... This species had been recognised as a potentially new species known from a single collection and attempts by R. Purdie and M. Fagg to relocate the original population in Cuumbeun Nature Reserve had been unsuccessful. The species was serendipitously relocated by R. Purdie and M. Fagg while picnicking at a nearby location on New Year’s Day, 2023."
