2 Philodendron translations

From: Todd Ruth <truth at weber.ucsd.edu> on 1997.01.08 at 00:42:26(68) 2 more name translations. These also come from the Huntington. Could someone please translate Philodendron 'Evansii' and Philodendron 'Imbe' to species names? My guess would be the the first is a cultivar of Selloum, but I'd like to know for sure. As long as I'm asking, could anyone confirm Philodendron Sagittifolium as a current name? I took some pictures while I was there with the idea of starting a photo album of aroids I've seen and I'd like to get the labels right. Thanks, Todd +More BTW, a quick(?) response the "?" response to my naming standards question: I noticed at the Huntington, every name tag has a number on it (in addition to name). That number seemed to be a unique identifier of the species (maybe up to cultivar?). I remember reading a while back in the "How to permanently label a plant" thread someone mentioning that they used numbers (with the side effect of reducing handwriting problems :) ). I thought it would be convenient if everyone used the same numbering scheme so even if a Rhaphidophora Decursive becomes a Philodendron ?, I could still keep the same number on the plant and even have someone else know what the number meant if the plant changed hands a few times and the name changed a few more times too. If that's clear, then the rest of my message was basically just a matter of implementation details.

There is a _Philodendron sagittifolium_Liebm. from Mexico but I really don't know if the name is still valid. Philodendron 'Evansii' isn't a true species but a cultivated hybrid of _Philodendron bipinnatifidum_Schott ex Endlicher x _Philodendron undulatum_Engler. Hope it helps, Eduardo.
