Is it okay if I post a group of photos like this one for identification or do I need to post it seperately

5. Ceratopogonidae. Only the first, swollen segment of the broken antennae is visible.

Hehe, separately would be as in 'in separate threads'. No need to repost them now, though. Wink

#2 is (still) a Hydrellia, no question marks needed Smile
#3 is definitely a ephydrid near Psilopa.
#4 You are right, the 1st crossvein is close to the middle of the discal cell -> Tomosvaryella, not Dorylomorpha (at least in Europe, IIRC some oriental Dorylomorpha are close to Tomosvaryella in this aspect)

Size estimates can be very valuable (assuming they are correct!).
