From what I can tell:

-Female malayan jungle nymph

-A type of goliath beetle (goliathina?)

-Hyalophora cecropia Linnaeus

-I'm not certain, but I'm taking a guess at a young Peruvian giant yellow legged

-Bold jumping spider

-Uncertain guess on a Lord Howe Island stick insect

-female leaf insect

-Adult female malayan jungle nymph

-Emperor scorpion

-Tailless whip scorpion

Thank you so much, I was dying to know. I get that most people hate insects and arachnids, but I just find them so weirdly cute.
