Taxonomy and naming
This species was first formally described in 2003 by Marco F. Duretto who gave it the name Boronia warangensis in the journal Muelleria from a specimen collected in the Warang section of the White Mountains National Park.{{cite web|title=Boronia warangensis|url= https://id.biodiversity.org.au/instance/apni/585010|publisher=APNI|accessdate=14 March 2020}} In a 2013 paper in the journal Taxon, Marco Duretto and others changed the name to Cyanothamnus warangensis on the basis of cladistic analysis.{{cite journal |last1=Duretto |first1=Marco F. |last2=Heslewood |first2=Margaret M. |last3=Bayly |first3=Michael J. |title=Boronia (Rutaceae) is polyphyletic: Reinstating Cyanothamnus and the problems associated with inappropriately defined outgroups |journal=Taxon |date=2020 |volume=69 |issue=3 |pages=481–499 |doi=10.1002/tax.12242}} The specific epithet (warangensis) refers to type location.
