    The harvestman is Leiobunum rotundum female.

    A Banded Demoiselle.

    Harlequin Ladybird.

    #4 is one of the Athalia sawflies but they tend to be tricky.

    Not sure about #5 from that angle. One of the orange Empis species?

    Finally, Episyrphus balteatus.

    Nice series. At first I thought the title just referred to the first image. I assumed that the variety referred to the bits on the leaf (adding variety). Were these shed anthers from the nettle flower?
