Yes logically it should be T. speciosa (but some times logic fails as was in prattensis yesterday; and the author has that liberty). The name does not appear in IPNI (speciosa or speciosum) or the Net. May be a very recently named (and described?) species. Some one having latest Flora of Maharashtra can verify.
