The correct writing of the specific epithet is debated. The original spelling is "inexspectus" which is the correct classic latin form (compared to "inexpectus") being a noun (meaning "the unexpected (male)". I therefore regard it as a noun in apposition which is not to be changed with the gender of the genus name.
