Hi Helen, There are two species of beetles here: pie dish beetles at the back and Rainbow darklings in front. I think there are also one of each in the last photo. Can you separate and post as different species?
Thanks

As Alison says, there is a mix here. There are Pie dish beetles (Pterohealaeus striatopunctatus) and Rainbow darkling beetles (Chalcopteroides sp.), as well as an upside-down Leaf beetle (Paropsisterna sp.) and a Jumping spider (Servaea sp.).
