I think these should all be moved to Acanthocephala.
It would be great if by continued observation you could get it to species, but there's no doubt in my mind about the genus.

You might also edit the titles to reflect the date each image was taken - then you don't need to open each image to see the time progression. I created an example of what I mean here: Gulf Fritillary - it makes the thumbnails more informative, as you can just run the cursor over each one to see the date.

Nice series!
