The Plant is Cleome viscosa L., Regarding name change, after some review by a taxonomist the names may be changed; it is a continuous process, hence many plants of so many synonyms, As Garg ji said, we have to apply our mind; or if we write the old name it should be written with author's name and publication, it is not a great error not to know the ever changing names, for we are accustomed to use one name for so many years! Thank you regards A.Lalithamba
