Moved, Ellychnia sp.
I don't know the western species.

Moved from ID Request.

Must be genus Ellychnia

Is it possible to put 21 photo's in one week which is more convenient to me..?

 
This "rule" is not strongly enforced
but if you want to upload more photos, make sure you put some at a more specific level. Editors and staff spend a lot of time moving images from "ID Request".

You can help them out, especially if you want to upload more photos, by posting the images directly to the right level.

For instance beetles can be directly uploaded to the "beetles" page:
http://bugguide.net/node/view/60/bgimage

Butterflies and moths can be posted to this page:
http://bugguide.net/node/view/57/bgimage

If you really aren't sure, then you can keep those in "ID request".

and so on.

and where can I find this link for true bugs?
And by now I'm just wondering if I make you happy with my pictures or you have rather I don't put it.

 
You can use the pictures on the left of the website
The one above the scorpion and grasshopper goes to true bugs.

This is a beetle not a bug: the wings are divided by a straight line down the center. It has already been identified so you don't need to move this, anyway.
