I see 2 very similar O. fugalis, and a partial view of some other insect in the first and fourth photo, where are the 'dark ones'?

These all were dark ones. See separate sighting 4627728 for comparison with brighter specimens.

BOLD shows both dark and brown specimens. I guess its just like H. sapiens.

Apis mellifera, a honeybee, in first and 4th images, I think.
