Name

Clinus exasperatus Holleman, von der Heyden & Zsilavecz, 2012

Holotype: SAIAB 98635.

Etymology: The specific name exasperatus is a Latinized form of 'exasperate'; the species has been thus named because of the numerous, unsuccessful attempts by the second author to obtain additional specimens.
