Bugs, flies, butterflies all on the same flower... I will need some help identifying all :)

Libellula comanche, male, Libellulidae. Dankworth Lake, Graham County, Arizona.

Hemiptera, Pentatomidae nymph. Probably Asopinae, Podisus sp.

Members of Asopinae, also known as predatory stinkbugs or soldier bugs, are set apart from the other pentatomid subfamilies by the essentially predaceous feeding habits of nymphs (with the exception of first instars) and adults. In addition, they are often observed to feed on plants, a habit that provides them with moisture and perhaps some supplemental nutrients.
