The species was first formally described in 2012 by Michael Clyde Hislop and Caroline Puente-Lelièvre from specimens collected north-west of Collie in 2006. The specific epithet (extremus) refers to the "remarkably aberrant morphology" of the species. It is listed as "Priority Two" by the Western Australian Government Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions, meaning that it is poorly known and from only one or a few locations.
