Cool pics, thanks for sharing them. I got curious about this species because it looks so different from any of the Spiranthes species I'm knowledgeable, but there's practically no information online about it.
The closest I could find is Spiranthes acaulis, which is an old synonym for Sarcoglottis acaulis, but none of the photos online look like your plant.

Doesn't look like any spiranthes I've seen either..spiranthes that I know have no evident leaves on the spike, leaves are basal.

Definately not Spiranthes. Flowers would be in a very noticeable spiral pattern.
Have you tried looking here:
Trinidad and Tobago Orchid Society - Database
Cheers.
