The species was first formally described by the botanist William Vincent Fitzgerald in 1912 as part of the work New West Australian Plants. Journal of Botany, British and Foreign. It was reclassified as Racosperma brachycladum by Leslie Pedley in 2003 before being returned to the Acacia genus in 2006.[2]
