Insect or Invertebrates Identification - DONE

[Toko]

Have Id'ed BluTuna's one with the Virtual Museum database, it's Colotis evagore antigone Small Orange Tip

[Toko]

I am still not sure for leachy's butterfly, but I think it's the Orange Tip, because the Wet Season Form of the Smoky should have two dark bars: a broad black cross bar centrally and across the lower part of the hindwing.

So I make it the Orange Tip

Any ideas here...seen at Pilanesberg.

More to be identified for the AW Insect books.

Red-Veined Dropwing?????? It looks a bit different to the ones I usually see.

Not sure about this one either. It's a Carpenter Bee but is it a Xylocopa caffra?

There is not much info to find on the other species of Xylocopa. But on ispot they have IDed all carpenters with yellow bands as Xylocopa caffra

Do I include it to the entry?

But this one has white bands! I'm not certain that it's not a Giant Carpenter Bee so let's leave it off of the entry.
