Garg ji, Both Tropicos <http://www.tropicos.org/Name/13801401>and TPL<http://www.theplantlist.org/tpl1.1/record/kew-2708700>use the spelling: *Centaurium mairei *Zeltner. An another record of Tropicos<http://www.tropicos.org/Name/13801436?tab=acceptednames>says C. pulchellum var. meyeri is the accepted name.
But, IPNI and Fl. Pakistan use *C.* *meyeri* (Bunge) Druce<http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=250091152> (note the difference in author names, too). According to Fl.Pak., this name is now a synonym of *Centaurium pulchellum* var. *meyeri* (Bunge) Omer So, I think we should use the latest combination: *Centaurium pulchellum*var. *meyeri* (Bunge) Omer Thanks for flagging this issue.
