    Can you tell if those leaves are single compound or is that a single leaf in the first photo?

    I would guess the Fabaceae subfamily Fabaceae: Caesalpinioideae - Rainforest Plants (wheatonma.edu), except I've already lost the page that said that subfamily often has fruits that are stacked in the pods, like Lifesavers.
    That page has a Tropical Resources link on the sidebar with several resources from central America:
    Tropical Biology Resources - Rainforest Plants (wheatonma.edu)
    I haven't looked at them yet. If you check out any that seem very useful, you could suggest them for the Outdoor Tropicals Resources | UBC Botanical Garden Forums page.
