Alocasia acuminata Schott (inflorescence usually solitary)?
same alocasia ? 
For the same reason as I have explained in your thread I suggested it to be A. acuminata. But again I request you to check the population, for you should have A. acuminata, A. fallax (according to Hooker similar to A. fornicata; maybe A. navicularis as per http://www.aroid.org/aroidl-archive/showthread.php?id=724).

Some Colocasia species?
To me, this is Apoballis rupestris (Zoll. & Moritzi ex Zoll.) S.Y.Wong & P.C.Boyce.
It is Apoballis rupestris NOT Colocasia. I have got both species at home.
A reply from another thread:
"I have just downloaded and expanded this photo. NOT Schismatoglottis. This is Alocasia, but I cannot name to species. Note the synandria and the sinuous interprimary collecting vein."
Perhaps Alocasia acuminata
