Some locations would be very helpful.
The specimen in the top of the third photograph is Eacles imperialis. Without the location, I cannot determine to subspecies.
Again, locations, even country would be helpful.

But why I could see those ugly sewing pins. Please order proper entomological pins and save your self time in the future for repining all your specimens.

In my opinion I would say #3 and #7 are female and male of Eacles ducalis.
