As understood now Senna surattensis and S. glauca (now known as S. sulphurea) are two distinct species. As per Flora of China (I consider one of the most reliable):
*Senna surattensis* (N. L. Burman) H. S. Irwin & Barneby: Leaflets 6-9 pairs; leaves 10-15 cm; stipe of legume 5-7 mm. *Senna sulfurea* (Colladon) H. S. Irwin & Barneby (syn: *Cassia glauca* Lamarck; *Senna surattensis* (N. L. Burman) H. S. Irwin & Barneby subsp. *glauca* (Lamarck) X. Y. Zhu: Leaflets 4-6 pairs; leaves 15-30 cm; stipe of legume 10-20 mm. Both have flattened pod more than 1 cm broad. S. pendula has 3-5 pairs of smaller leaflets (up to 4 cm long; 4-10 cm long in S. sulfurea and 2-5 cm in S. surattensis), flowers smaller flowers (10-13 mm broad; more than 2 cm broad in other two) but more importantly pods are cylindrical.
