Congrats!
I've updated with the proper ID. An ID made by ceherzog led me to Dischidia and solving this mystery.
I spotted something similar in Uvita, Costa Rica (still no ID). http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/565...
Both are pretty peculiar as vines go.
Really Different!
Weird leaves, they look like plastics. :)
wow...sure is unusual.
