| | | Unknown beetles for ID
Thought this one was a house longhorn, but it looks to have a different abdomen shape... 
no idea... 
again, no idea.... 
yet again, no idea... (sorry  ) but it looks similar to the second pic 
this one has been bugging me, as i cant seem to find it in any of my bug books. All the other pics i've seen have red thoraxes, and none look quite the same...
Thanks  |

No.3 looks more like a springtail of some description than a beetle to me. |

The weevil is a Sitona species. Looks like Sitona lineatus but not close enough to tell. (Same as the Chysomelid) |

Hi Sarah,
Indeed as Steve ( Gerel) says, #3 is a Springtail, and likely a Tomocerus sp. I agree with Dan on the penultimate and the last is, as Charlie says, a Lycid - generally known as Net-winged Beetles.
Take care, Jason  |
