These 16th or 17th drawings might also be German instead of Dutch. They have other insects, not sure if this is the right forum. With many thanks for all your help! Attachments:

Top-left: a Melolontha melolontha (Scarabaeidae).
Top-right: a Trichius (Scarabaeidae).
The big beetle on the center: a male Lucanus cervus (Lucanidae) : I see 4 articles on the edge of antennae (in the club) , so it's the subspecies cervus (there is also another subspecies of Lucanus cervus -the largest one- ,the subspecies judaicus from Turkey,which also has 4 articles in the antennal club, but the painted one here is more likely to be the nominate European subspecies cervus).
Bottom right: A Cicindela Carabid , - possibly Cicindela hybrida.
All European.
