bugs for id please

[david156]

Have just got back from a few days in the peaks and have now got to try to id some of the little critters that were seen.




There were plenty of these about, but not to many photogenic ones




These were busy doing what bugs do and then the top one rolled off and laid on its back. Can't post my comment here


Thank you to Tracey for modeling this bug.

Any ideas would be appreciated,

cheers David

1. A soldier beetle
2. A scorpion fly Panorpa sp.
3. A bee, possibly a honey bee, if I've interpreted what I can see of the wing venation.
3. Leaf beetles.
5. A stonefly. Very nice.

You ought to be able to get further help with 1 & 5, possibly also with 3. I'm rusty on lots of my inverts at the moment, so wont try and go further.
