Hello,

My apologies for the quality of the pics. I'm using my cell phone camera. Some pings I have recently fed (maybe overfed) so ignore the brown stuff :)
 
The last one looks like juam or esseriana.
 
These are just guesses

2'Sethos'
3Ehlersiae

3Ehlersiae

Dunno about Sethos but I do have ehlersiae albeit small and #3 does not look like it. Leaves are too short and drool edges are too meaty (on #3) it looks more like esseriana i think.

To me, I would also say ehlersiae- I always thought that esseriana had the rounded drool edges and ehlersiae had pointy ones- however, the lines between juam, esseriana and ehlersiae are pretty blurred, so... ??? Your ehlersiae looks like a small carbon copy of my own, though...
 
My thought is P. ehleresiae as well.

jimscott,

That is actually one of your pings! From the ones that you included with u. gibba. On the day that I got the package I was stuck at work 'till late and by the time I got to potting these small guys it was dark and it started raining :) So I was in the hurry and I mixed up the labels... still trying to figure out what is what.

I am really thankful for them!!

Oh cuz I can't take being wrong;)
Next time use your English man so I don't have to spend five minutes trying to figure out why you called me
a) a Portuguese footballer
b) the Hindi word for grandma
c) The hawaiian girls name meaning "beautiful"
d) a place in Afghanistan
:-))
Btw it means 'what' in Japanese

Iie.. nandemonai..

Anyway :)
So the third one seems to be either P. ehlersiae or P. esseriana

Can anyone suggest what the 1st one and maybe second one might be?

LOL! In that case.... P. gypsicola! Seriously, the ones that have white, turned up leaves like that would be esseriana, 1717, and 1713. The latter two look exactly alike to me, including the flowers. Can you do any process of elimination with respect to esseriana vs. the other two? I don't think I had P. jaumviensis to spare and I've been out of P. eheleresiae for at least a year.

Jim,

The 1717 and 1713 I have identified properly and they are sitting separately in other pots.
P. Unknown 3 (lost its label...) I had labeled as P. esseriana after trying to identify it comparing to pictures in carnivorous plants photo finder.
P. Unknown 1 was labeled as P. pirouette. For P. Unknown 2 I have mixed up the label while hastily potting the plants late at night but since it looked like small P. wesser or like P. pirouette I started doubting. P. wesser was eliminated later because its leaves have deeper red color.
So to you both P. pirouette/ Unkown 1 and P. Unknown 2 look identical?

[So to you both P. pirouette/ Unkown 1 and P. Unknown 2 look identical? /QUOTE] They do..... but then again, they also look like very young plants and the mature plant could look a little different. Hera re pictures of what I have as P. 'Pirouette':

Just for reference here is a P. 'Pirouette' and smaller pullings. Originally from Jimscott. Not quite in the full summer leaf configuration. Judging based on color is not a sure bet since it depends on the season and the light source grown under. Even replacing an old bulb with unused bulb from the same batch can make a difference.
