I have no idea about the reliability of the page but Christian Kreß (of Sarastro Stauden) has one of the biggest A. nemerosa collections for sale that I know of. He's a very driven nursery-man and gardener, so I guess he know's what he's showing. But I take it you would like to have the first description of those cultivars! Maybe Christian would know who marketed those cultivars for the first time, you can find his e-mailaddress here: http://www.sarastro-stauden.com/de/impressum. (http://www.sarastro-stauden.com/de/impressum.) He's a very friendly man, so you can always ask him!
