Dear Todd, 

Philodendron 'Imbe' is _Philodendron imbe_ Schott (if it is the same 
species I know from Southeastern Brazil). 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.
