Originally named L. randriansoli, the name was found to be incorrectly formed and was corrected to L. randrianasoloi in 2009.[5] This species's original 2006 description was entirely online, and therefore did not meet the ICZN standards to be a valid name. It was given a formal described in 2017.[3]
