The posting of pictures is easy ....but to find out the plant names is more difficould  ;D
It is always the same Problem :

Since no one is prepared to try putting a name to the Ophrys in reply 3, I'll have a guess and say that Ophrys 3 is O. apifera, whilst all of the others are variable examples of O. fuciflora. But I'm quite prepared to be told that I'm wrong....
