Grove Music does not include an Artaserse in Leo's work list, and the list looks fairly comprehensive. Since the RISM entries have the title surrounded by question marks, i.e. ?Artaserse?, the opera for which these were written seems to be under question. Tagged as arias for now, since there clearly is no full opera extant, and the page name may have to change if the opera is identified as something else.
