Dear Sam ji, Please note that *മൈസൂരു mysooru is already validated by you* in compilation of *Sida mysorensis* Wight & Arn. https://groups.google.com/g/indiantreepix/c/T5dGlwoWhoo/m/TUah89u2BwAJ
It is very important that we keep the name consistent across the species. I would have gone ahead to revise the spelling only if it was incorrect. Regards.
