Finally for now ... these orange & black spotted beetles were among the most common things in the garden, & yet somehow I kept ignoring them, only getting a few poor pictures.

They're genus Lachnaia, but could be L. pubescens, L. paradoxa, or L. tristigma: I'm not sure the pictures are good enough to be definitive.

Another soggy pool-dipping (but alive!) insect where I think I have the genus, but ID'ing the species is hard.

This is likely a Eurasian field grasshopper, genus Chorthippus, but there are several kinds on Mallorca, including C. jacobsi & C. brunneus, both of which similar to this one.

Again, if you know ... 🦗

This dead rhinoceros beetle was another unfortunate victim of the swimming pool, hence the slightly bedraggled look.

Pretty sure it's in genus Pentodon, but given the location, it could be P. bidens or P. algerinus.

I'm not well-enough versed in beetles to be able to separate them – let me know if you can.
