Greetings,
Number 1 is Stenomorpha sp. - there are a number of similar species in the genus.
58Chevy is correct about number 2 - Coenopoeus palmeri, and number 5 is also the same species.
Number 3 is Calosoma sp. as you surmised. It looks close to Calosoma peregrinator, but that's just a guess.
Number 4 is a melolonthine scarab - Phyllophaga (Eugastra) cribrosa - one of the few flightless species of Phyllophaga.
Hope this helps! Bandrow
