This species was first formally described in 1805 by Jacques Labillardière who gave it the name Velleia trinervis in his Novae Hollandiae Plantarum Specimen . [4] [5] In 2020, Kelly Anne Shepherd transferred the species to Goodenia as G. trinervis in the journal PhytoKeys . [1] The specific epithet trinervis means "three-nerved", referring to the leaves.
