Here are the rest of the plants I collected on the trip. I am hoping for an ID

This Monstera Deliciosa has stems about 3" thick.

I think this may be an immature version of the plant below, but I am not sure. It had 2 Inflorescence when I collected it, but one dropped pollen the night I collected it (saved for hybridizing attempts) & the other was shed due to a maggot infestation, but it had tiny beetles also. Is this variegated, or does the leaf have some sort of damage? I am seeing the same affect on several plants.

This is a beautiful plant that I noticed in a tiny cave on the side of the road while traveling at 100KPH. The red really sticks out! HEHE! Anyone know what it is?
