I haven't written yet, though I've meant to many times... I'm infinitely grateful to @zlatica for opening this thread... now I hope I might finally get to the bottom of all the unknowns in my photo archive of various bugs and butterflies... but first "current" matters... taken during mid-week visit to Dovžan gorge... not sure if identifications are correct... happy for confirmation or corrections if wrong...

On Črni prsti I saw this butterfly. Really no closer pic. Can't find the name.

Zlatica, or maybe someone else knows what bug this is on my balcony lavender. About 4 cm long and proboscis very big. It fluttered from flower to flower, first time I've seen it..

Hello, I took a little break.. . I see you were very active in the meantime. Let me comment on a couple of insects:
Zvončica, your "grasshopper", as I call them, I can't identify, because they are very difficult and in several developmental stages.
Gita, your butterflies are as you wrote. The common winter moth is the male, prettier than the female. The common hazelnut moth is the pair: left female, right male, who has more spots on the upper wing, the female has none. And the last one, the large rock grayling is one of my very beautiful butterflies, especially the eyespots are extremely interesting to me. Nice catch!
velkavrh, your butterfly is unknown to me, first time I see it, very interesting and belongs to nocturnal moths, which doesn't mean you can't see it during the day. I recommend posting it on FB in the Butterflies group, maybe some expert will tell you which one.
Majda, your privet hawkmoth flew very friendly even to your balcony. When I had the camera, I never met a privet hawkmoth, when I didn't have it, I saw it several times.
Now some of my butterflies or insects that piled up for me in the second half of June.

Zlatica, your photos are EXCEPTIONALLY beautiful, a real feast for the eyes. No wonder we can hardly wait for your posts. Scopolijev zlatook is something special. Regards

This one cheered me up today on Šmarna gora Great stag beetle, the largest European beetle. Very rare (at least for me) to see it.

This one posed for me yesterday on Visoki Mavrinac. There were plenty of other little butterflies, but they wouldn't stay still even for a second.

Madeira, that's the hawthorn ermine. Regards

Sorok, congratulations on the stag beetle. I used to see these as a child in the forests where we played, now they are a real rarity.
madeira, everything indicates you photographed the hawthorn ermine. This one is one of the larger ermine moths.
Now some butterflies from Vršič and from Trenta a few days ago.

Yes, really. There used to be quite a few of these stag beetles. Well yesterday I found another one along the Sava behind Črnuški bridge, but sadly "squashed"; trampled or run over

I haven't seen so many butterflies as I saw yesterday for a long time. On the Karst.
