Caesalpinioideae (Unidentified Yellow-Flowered Tree) (species unidentified)

This flowering tree belongs to a legume subfamily distributed mainly across the tropics. It bears small yellow flowers in upright clusters on woody branches. Members of the subfamily generally have leaves divided into leaflets and produce seed pods, with different species adapted to rainforests, seasonally dry forests, or savannas. Many have leaf glands that provide nectar for ants, and most have flowers pollinated by bees. Photographed in Colombia.
