ii) cataphyll subtending petiole usually immediately deliquescent; petiole usually less than blade length; leaf-base subcordate to rounded – costatum
There is an image titled Aglaonema costatum ‘First Diamond’ (parent directory – http://www.wolfkamp.se/bilder/) which seems replica of the first pic in this thread. But, who knows if the author is correct or not!
May be you are right … Thanks for keen investigation.

Request for identification of an ornamental from Mahe. Photographed in November, 2019.
Pl. check Aglaonema sps for sure. Could be a variety of A.costatum sps. Very difficult to pin point the variety in this group. Thank you very much … I also felt that it could be A. costatum. Thanks, …, for the id.

Some sites call it Aglaonema costatum ‘F. Foxii’
