I think that you are correct. I have numerous Syngonium podophyllum. The leaflets are identical. In the new species the vein system has more branches.
The photo is off podophyllum

The intelligence of the Syngonium is quite remarkable apart from it's "computer" controlled reproductive system and the ability to generate heat.
I have many seedlings from last year's heavy fruit crop. One of the seedlings was overlooked and has grown rapidly. It was hidden in a flower bed and sent out a runner 2 meters long directly to a large post which it started to climb. The post has the same light source as the plant and is not in the shade.
