Thank you Gerardo Aizpuru for the ID.
@ Gilma and Jakubko for your comments.
Beautiful! I can see how this would provide vital protection for insects!
Great tree Luis, i think is a Pochote / Ceiba schottii is the only one that has so many thorns on the branches. http://www.backyardnature.net/yucatan/ce...
