Xanthosoma names .

I have found a list of names compiled by the University of Melbourne in Victoria , Australia .
 
http://www.plantnames.unimelb.edu.au/Sorting/Xanthosoma.html
 
They have used information from GRIN/NPGS , buit the lists differ slightly .
 
http://www.ars-grin.gov/cgi-bin/npgs/html/taxdump.pl?Xanthosoma
 
One species I am interested in , as I am growing it .. is what has been known as
 Xanthosoma jacquinii 'lineatum'  , it is missing from the GRIN database and is supposed to be a syn. for X.undipes and X.sagittifolium on the other database .
Also in cultivation in Australia is X.blandum , I found the name in the great book ;
  'The Tropical Plants of R.Burle Marx'  it is listed as a synonym of X.poeppigii .  
 
Any one disagree with these lists ?
