Thank you sir. I am not a scientist and I don't understand how taxonomy is finally decided. I'm only trying to see if the plant we came across is *Pavonia arabica *or its endemic subspecies, for purposes of collecting seeds, growing them and planting them in Rao Jodha Park, and spreading awareness amongst visitors. If it is indeed the endemic species, we also want to try and conserve it and increase its population in the rocky areas of Jodhpur.
