See this one picture with care.

There are some insects that I would be very appreciated to identify all.
Please see the notes so you can know which number is indicated for each insect. Thank you.

3 and 4 - possible Mosquito larvae??

2 - Not dipter, I think... so which is this?

1 - Dipter, of course. Smile But I don't know family.

3 and 4 are mosquito larvae. 2 is a collembolan. 1 is probably Muscidae. And the little fly to the left is Hydrellia (Ephydridae).
At first I wondered whether no.1 was Notiphila (Ephydridae), but it has four pairs of dorsocentral bristles, is too shiny, is standing too high, with the wings not fully overlapping, and has conspicuously wide orbits. (It has the wrong jizz)

oops, in case of culicidae probably anophelinae; they don?t have (siphon? so they are horizontally under water, while culicinae are in a more vertical position
