My (very) tentative ID suggestions: -

No's 1 to 3 possibly Caloplaca flavescens?
No.4 possibly Aspicilia calcarea?

Any help with ID confirmation/other appreciated.

Mike.

For what it's worth, I agree.

(not sure when I'll deal with them, but I now have a few more Caloplaca species to go up on my site.)
